Abstract

A garment suitable for practical and convenient manipulation by a wearer of the garment is presented, wherein the garment includes a front panel, back panel, and a first and second sleeve. A plurality of releasable fasteners are located along a first and second sleeve. A plurality of releasable fasteners begin at a starting point corresponding to a wrist of a person and ascend to an ending point corresponding to an upper portion near a neck of the person. The plurality of releasable fasteners are located at a distance apart from one another to enable a gap to exist between each releasable fastener. As a result, a surface underneath the garment is accessible as a function of the existing gap between each releasable fastener. Portions of the garment are detachable as a result of a positioning of the plurality of releasable fasteners and upon selection by a user.

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Patients in a hospital environment have long lamented that the garments provided by hospitals do not provide adequate warmth or comfort to the patient.

Typically, hospital apparel tends to be too light weight.

Most patients end up feeling very cold and inadequately covered.

Since the medical staff must be able to quickly access a patient's limbs and body, a patient is often left uncovered or hardly covered at all with any blankets or significant source of warmth.

In such situations, a patient experiences additional discomfort from his or her illness as well as the fact that the patient is physically uncomfortable due to their lack of warm coverings and experiencing cold throughout their body.

These assorted tubes and wires are sensitive to too much manipulation.

Indeed, their functionality can be hampered when patients cover themselves with too many sweaters, robes, jackets, and similar such apparel in order to feel warm and comfortable in a hospital environment.

However, these attempts fail to provide a complete solution to the above-mentioned problems.

However, these previous embodiments are significantly lacking and critical inadequacies and problems still exist with these attemp
