Aprons
Zero Fatigue Aprons
The first and only X-ray Protective Aprons ever to eliminate 100% of weight and contact at the shoulder areas are the ErgoLite® Zero Fatigue Aprons. By using a reinforced but flexible internal framework, these aprons have been designed to entirely eliminate the Repetitive Stress and Fatigue Problems of the upper back and extremities associated with the shoulder contact and weight of conventional X-ray aprons.
Here's how they work . . . .These aprons have two specially designed lightweight thermoplastic supports. Beginning at the waist of the garment, these supports are built into the garment's lining. The supports extend from the waist, up and over the shoulders, and down the back of the garment, ending at the waist. Combined with the use of our adjustable height back support belt, these supports pick up the weight of the garment along their entire length, particularly at the shoulders. This eliminates not only shoulder weight from the apron, but also all contact at the shoulder.
Here's how it helps . . . .This design was specifically developed to help relieve the repetitive stress at the shoulders caused by prolonged lead apron shoulder contact. Repetitive Stress has been identified as a cause of chronic fatigue and pain in medical professionals who wear X-ray protective aprons for long periods of time on a regular basis.
ErgoLite® is a revolutionary design - simple but effective. It helps eliminate repetitive stress and fatigue problems, while allowing the protective garment to remain both flexible and comfortable. The ErgoLite® Zero Fatigue is available in three popular X-ray protective apron styles, the 600 series Vest and Kilt, the 700 series Wraparound aprons, and the 200 series Designer Buckle Front Protection Aprons. ErgoLite® Zero Fatigue aprons are the only products of their type. All of our ErgoLite® Aprons are made with premium super-lightweight & No-Lead X-Ban® protective material. Available exclusively from AADCO Medical.

Fully Supported ErgoLite® Aprons have space under the shoulders. Virtually no contact is made between the shoulder and the apron. No other X-ray Apron can do this. |
