Description
- This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 61/734,160 filed on Dec. 6, 2012.
- For various reasons, healthcare professionals may need to gain access to a patient's skin. For example, the patient may require chemotherapy or dialysis treatments, or any number of other treatments. In order for the access point to be exposed for healthcare professionals to prep and access, patients arriving at healthcare facilities may need to disrobe or change into a gown.
- The need to obtain access to certain parts/sites on a patient's body for examination or treatment requires that a patient wear a hospital gown. Such gowns are not suitable for street wear and do not allow a patient to move around a hospital since they have large openings enabling ready access by medical personnel for examination or treatments.
- Example implementations are described in the following detailed description and in reference to the drawings, in which:
-
FIG. 1 illustrates an example garment in accordance with the principles disclosed herein; -
FIG. 2 illustrates an example patch in accordance with the principles disclosed herein; -
