A splash-shield and related fluid delivery device is intended for medical irrigation or lavage of compromised areas of skin. The device includes a passage for fluid to exit into a bell. The passage exits into the bell closer to one edge of the bell, but is angled toward the other end of the bell, where there are bights defining drainage openings. The angled passage imparts a directional component to the fluid stream which, along with any available gravity drainage, encourages the irrigant to flow over the compromised area and out of the bell. The splash-shield is egg-shaped to cover a larger compromised area and to further enhance the distribution of irrigant. The rim of the bell is shaped to discourage unintended splashing of spent irrigant onto the administering personnel or the patient, while nonetheless allowing for efficient irrigation.
