The Secure Touch XR1 are the thinnest Radiation Protection Surgical Gloves available featuring maximum tactile sensitivity with high attenuation. Tested and certified at direct beam according to IEC 61331.1-2014 (60-120 kVp).
The Radiation Protection Gloves are sterile, powder-free surgeon's gloves to be worn by hospital personnel, specifically surgeons, to protect their hands from radiation during operation of x-ray equipment whenever a high degree of protection and tactile sensitivity is needed. The main purpose of these gloves is to reduce the amount of dispersed radiation exposure to the hands from the primary x-ray beam during surgical procedures under fluoroscopy performance. Ideal Procedures, where Radiation Protection Surgical Gloves can be used, are: Cardiology Orthopaedics, EP/Cath Lab, Intensive Care, Radiology, Nuclear Medicine, Haemodynamics, Neuroradiology, Urology, Pain Management Endoscopy, and Resuscitation.
