  • the split can e.g. be closed v/ith a zipper of which at least the slider body in the uppermost position thereof is covered with a flap having a locking member in order to make it harder for the patient to reach the slider body.
  • Alternatives are conceivable, such as the use of a small lock.
  • the present invention aims to provide a safety garment that can be manufactured relatively cheap but with which nevertheless a high level of protection of the pa ient against themselves can be achieved.

  • Tie-wrap may be used for armholes and holes for the legs.
  • the term hole for the leg means a continuous opening into which a leg is at least partially inserted.
  • the term hole for the leg implies a hole for the leg in the form of the proximal opening of the leg, a hole for the leg in the form of the distal opening of the leg, as well as each cross section of the leg thereinbetween .

  • the shielded guide which comprises two layers of fabric is manufactured by applying a facing.
  • Such a facing of a safety garment according to the invention is inexpensive and effective.
  • the use of facings also makes it possible, by using two pieces of facing, to better shield off the place of access of the oblong element in the guide, by letting the pieces of facing overlap each other.
  • the shielded guide has a slot for accessing the oblong element.
  • the slot may contribute :o achieving the shielding of the oblong element, particularly at the neck opening, such as discussed in zhe figure description.
  • the guide comprises two oblong elements, wherein a first free end of a first oblong element is secured near a first slit edge of the left half of the back piece and and a first free end of a second oblong element is secured near a second slit edge of the right half of the back piece.
  • the through-opening for the neck can then be adjusted by connecting the second free ends, optionally after shortening at least one of the oblong elements.
  • the connection between the two free ends will automatically disappear into the guide and will thus be harder to access.
  • the safety garment is an overall .
  • the holes for the legs may optionally not be provided with a through-opening having an adjustable diameter, since the legs of the overall provide an effective barrier that prevents access to the interior. Furthermore, a leg, for which it is already harder to enter the interior, will not be able to meet the patients urge, since it has no fingers. Thus, less adjustment is needed.
  • the oblong element comprises roller blind cord.
  • Roller blind cord is strong and can easily be shortened to a desired length, e.g. by cutting. Furthermore, the ends of roller blind cord can be interconnected by means of a connection means in the shape of a box having a lid, which is known in the art, wherein of each end of two roller blind cord ends a bead is inserted into the connection means after which the lid is closed for securing the connection established .

Where the bead cord is situated within the hem 232 the beads are shown in black.

  • the connecting box 290 sits between the first facing 370 and the front piece 220 and cannot be reached by the patient via the two slots 235, 235' when wearing zhe safety suit.
  • Such an extreme shielding is not necessary for the bead cord 353 of the arm, since the hem 352 cannot be reached (via the sleeve 150) by the patient.

  • Access to the slot of e.g. a neck opening in a worn position is made impossible in that the fabric of the collar is stiff as a result of which the collar cannot be folded back. Nor can the elongated elements be manipulated because of this. Furthermore, the space in the guide can be too small for being able to open the little box. For armholes or holes for the legs benefit can optionally be taken of the fact that the access is situazed at a distance of the distal end, which may provide an extra barrier.
