Healthcare workers in radiology and cardiology rely on lead aprons for radiation protection, but evidence shows they face alarming rates of back pain and injury. A 2018-2019 study found 63% of lead apron users reported back pain—double the general population’s rate—with 83% attributing it to the aprons. A 2020 review confirmed high musculoskeletal disorder rates among interventional staff, with nearly half experiencing shoulder and back pain from aprons weighing up to 17 kg. This strain, often exerting 300 pounds per square inch on the spine, has led to fatigue, missed work, and even career changes. At CardiologyCoder, we’re addressing this issue with ApronMount, a device that suspends the lead apron, eliminating the weight burden on the shoulders and spine. Protect your health and focus on patient care with ApronMount—a safer, more comfortable solution for healthcare professionals.
