Burlington Medical, LLC is recalling 96,395 radiation protection garments and accessories, including thyroid shields, vests, kilts, and aprons, because the internal shielding material may degrade over time. This defect can shorten the protective lifespan of the equipment, which is used by healthcare professionals to block radiation during medical procedures. The affected products were manufactured between January 16, 2025, and January 21, 2026, and use Xenolite 800 attenuation material.
The radiation shielding material may break down faster than expected, reducing the amount of protection provided to the wearer. This increases the risk of accidental radiation exposure to healthcare staff and patients during diagnostic or surgical imaging.
