What To Consider When Purchasing a Maternity Lead Apron
Selecting the right radiation protection equipment ensures staff comfort, safety, and compliance with your facility’s specific needs.
Lead Equivalency and Protection Level
Lead aprons are available in 0.25mm, 0.35mm, and 0.5mm lead equivalency, with 0.5mm providing the highest protection level and blocking approximately 95-99% of scatter radiation. Your department’s exposure levels and procedure types will determine which protection level is appropriate for your team.
Weight and Material Options
Standard lead aprons are the heaviest option, while lead-composite and lead-free alternatives can be 16-40% lighter while maintaining the same protection levels. Lighter-weight options reduce fatigue and upper back stress, making them especially suitable for staff wearing protection during long interventional procedures or all-day in the OR.
Style and Coverage Type
Front protection aprons provide quick on-off convenience for shorter procedures, while wrap-around or vest and skirt combinations offer 360-degree protection for staff with their backs exposed to scatter radiation. Consider your team’s procedural environment and positioning when selecting between frontal, wrap, or two-piece protection styles.
Comfort Features and Fit
Proper fit and weight distribution significantly impact long-term wearability and staff compliance with radiation safety protocols. Look for features like adjustable closures, padded shoulders, ergonomic design, and sizing options that accommodate your team’s range of body types to ensure garments are worn consistently and correctly.
