ABSTRACT:
Enhanced barrier protection for rear closure surgical gowns is provided by improved garment pattern design. The surgical gown of the present invention is formed from a garment blank having a first part, a center part and a second part wherein the first part and the second part are joined to the center part. The first part includes a pair of side edges spaced apart by a bottom edge. The second part includes a pair of side edges spaced apart by an upper edge. The upper edge of the second part is of greater length than the bottom edge of the first part. Portions of the center part define a neck opening. The side edges of the second part extend inwardly from the upper edge towards the center part. A slit, defined by edges in the second part, extends from the upper edge to the neck opining. In this way, when joining the side edges of the first and second parts to from the surgical gown, portions of the second part near the edges defining the slit overlap.
