<p>A garment for shielding from an infant's head and hands intravenous and gastrostomy lines infused into the infant during invasive therapy. The garment accomplishes its shielding objectives without restraining the infant's head or limbs while promoting mental health and development through free movement and play. The garment generally speaking is a sleeveless wrap-around type vest (5) provided with a cloth tab (40) attached to the interior side of the front of the vest for anchoring a portion of the infused line located underneath the vest when it is positioned on the infant. The vest is also uniquely provided with an opening (21) for permitting portions of the infused line to exit from beneath the vest and with cooperating components attached to the exterior side of the vest for further anchoring portions (50) of the infused line which have exited from beneath the vest via the opening. Since the vest is of the wrap-around type, it conforms comfortably to the torso of the infant, shields the infused lines from the infant's head and limbs and encourages the infant to engage in free movement and play.</p> |
