Enclosure for mitigation of leakage by syringe assembly

A method for manufacturing a splash guard for a syringe assembly, the method comprising:

• transmitting a three-dimensional (3D) model for the splash guard to be printed on a 3D printer, the 3D model for the splash guard comprising:
• first and second enclosure halves, each enclosure half comprising:
• a body having a side wall, a top wall connected to the side wall along a top edge of the side wall, and a bottom wall connected to the side wall along a bottom edge of the side wall,
• an internal protrusion connected to an inner surface of the side wall and structured to guide the syringe assembly to a particular placement within the enclosure, and
• an arm comprising a first end connected to an outer surface of the side wall opposite the inner surface, and a second end opposite the first end for gripping by a user;
• fabricating the enclosure halves using the 3D printer;
• and
• joining the enclosure halves at a pivot with a hinge biasing the arms towards an equilibrium state in which the second ends of the arms are positioned away from one another and the first ends of the arms impel the two enclosure halves together such that the two enclosure halves form a substantially enclosed cavity when engaged with the syringe assembly.
