Hospital / examination gown

Description

The Polycotton Pullover Gown in Blue is a reusable hospital patient gown designed with a pull-over style and open back, providing generous coverage and enhanced patient dignity. It has no ties or fastenings; instead, the back overlap is held in place by a large single-needle box stitch pattern at the neck, giving a secure fit while maintaining ease of use. The absence of ties and fasteners reduces the risk of artefacts or “ghost images” on X-rays, making the gown especially popular in radiology and imaging departments. Constructed from blue twill polyester/cotton fabric, it offers durability, easy laundering and low maintenance for hospitals and clinics. The gown is sized generously for adults and can be used in any department where an open-back patient gown is required.

Bnefits

No ties or fastenings – simplifies donning and removal for patients and staff and eliminates loose ties that can interfere with imaging equipment.
Open-back design with generous fabric overlap at the rear to help maintain patient dignity during examinations and procedures.
Large single-needle box pattern at the neck secures the back overlap without additional fasteners, providing a neat, robust finish.
Preferred by X-ray and imaging departments because the lack of metal fasteners or ties minimises artefacts and ghost images on radiographs.
Generous adult sizing accommodates a wide range of body types and enhances comfort in bed or during seated procedures.
Low-maintenance design with no ties or fasteners reduces repair and laundering costs and extends garment life.
Made from durable blue twill polyester/cotton fabric, suitable for repeated washing and hospital-grade laundering.
Versatile: suitable for use across all hospital departments where an open-back gown is required, including wards, day-case units and outpatient clinics.

Typically bulk-packed in cartons or polybags for hospital linen services, with labelling indicating brand (Cromptons), fabric (polycotton), colour (blue) and style (pullover open-back gown).

Usage

For professional healthcare use as part of hospital or clinic patient Apparel.
To don, the patient places arms through the sleeves and pulls the gown over the head so that the overlap at the back is held by the stitched neck panel.
Ensure the back overlap sits correctly to provide adequate coverage and patient dignity; adjust as necessary while the patient is seated or lying down.
Use in departments where open-back access is required, such as X-ray, by positioning the patient in line with local imaging protocols.
After use, remove the gown over the head to avoid contamination, following local infection-prevention procedures.
Send used gowns for laundering according to hospital or contract laundry guidelines for polyester/cotton clinical textiles (e.g. appropriate thermal disinfection cycles).
Inspect gowns routinely for damage or excessive wear; remove from service and replace if fabric becomes thin, torn or stitching fails.
