ABSTRACT:
A fabric gown is proportioned for wrapping around a medical patient's torso in an arrangement where a first edge of the fabric extends along the patient's back while the opposite edge overlaps the first edge and extends along one side of the patient. The overlapped portions of the fabric are fastenable at that side of the patient. The gown preferably has sleeves and a slit extends from the neck opening along each shoulder and the adjacent sleeve, the slits being normally closed by fasteners but being openable to enable access to the upper torso without removal of the gown. The shoulder slit fasteners are preferably cloth buttons and all other fasteners are also preferably formed of textile material. The gown does not gape open and embarass the patient but does provide for easy access to the patient's torso region when necessary. The gown facilitates nursing of infants, can be economically manufactured and maintained and, in the preferred form, does not have components which can disrupt X-ray images, muclear magnetic resonance scans or the like.
