Patient radiation shielding pad/drape, reusable

231 devices · GMDN 64135

Patient radiation shielding pads and drapes are protective devices designed to reduce radiation exposure during medical imaging or therapy. They are placed over specific body parts to block direct radiation or scatter, helping to safeguard both the patient and healthcare staff during procedures like X-rays or fluoroscopy.

These reusable devices typically feature a lead-lined or lead-equivalent material encased in a durable, fluid-resistant outer layer. They are regulated as medical devices but are not classified under a single regulatory tier—each product’s classification depends on its design and intended use. Availability varies by region, with supply often tied to healthcare facility requirements for radiation safety.
