A splash guard for a swing saw in joint replacement

The application relates to a splash-proof device for a swing saw in arthroplasty, which comprises a protective shell, a protective cover, a connecting assembly, a binding assembly and a resistance increasing assembly. The application can solve the problems of sealing and operation portability not considered in the above-mentioned technology. Although the above-mentioned baffle can block part of blood splashing on the surgical personnel, the regional protection of the baffle is not considered. The baffle can only block the side facing the surgical personnel, and has no blocking effect on other directions. Special blood with infection can still splash to other instruments in other directions, causing pollution. In the above-mentioned technology, the baffle needs to be synchronously adjusted with the swing saw. Since the operation is usually a precision operation, the swing saw may present a fine adjustment operation. The synchronous adjustment of the baffle may block the fine adjustment of the swing saw, thereby causing the deviation of the swing saw operation position, and further causing medical accidents and the like.
