MEDICAL GOWN

摘要

A medical gown (10) includes a front side (11) joined to a back side (12) along a top seam (23) having a front side (24) and a back side (25) which are releasably joined together. The top seam front side includes an elongated strip of very small hook type fasteners (28). The top seam back side includes a pair of outer high strength loop type fasteners (31) (high bonding strength) spaced apart to allow the exposure of the exterior surface (20) of the gown back side which forms small loops that are considered an area of low strength loop type fasteners (34) (low bonding strength). The mating of the high strength loop type fasteners with the hook type fasteners provides a higher degree of separation resistance compared to that between the low strength loop type fasteners and the hook type fasteners.
