The DforD Clinical Gown - When Maternity Wear is Global Care

研究和开发一种新的创新礼服，适合产妇和新生儿的临床环境，而不是目前的患者礼服，准备在试验后项目中测试关于改善临床结果和用户反馈的假设。这项FemTech纺织品设计创新将利用纺织/服装设计、遗产工业和视频拍摄制作方面的专业知识。Net Zero合作后项目将确保可重复使用/可回收的礼服不会成为NHS每年送往垃圾填埋场的8.8万吨纺织品废物--如果设计得更好，其中大部分可以回收或重复使用。由于拥有纺织设计、时尚和助产士的背景，这一创新既得到了美学考虑，也得到了助产士的批准。这件礼服将支持联合国儿童基金会和国家健康与护理卓越研究所/NICE建议的即时产后护理指南，用父母的身份取代“患者身份”。

To research and develop a new innovative gown fit for maternal and neonatal clinical settings as opposed to current patient gowns, to prepare to test assumptions in regards to improved clinical outcomes and user feedback in trials post project. This FemTech textile design innovation will be using expertise within textile/garment design, heritage industry and video filming production.A Net Zero partnership post project, will ensure the reusable/recyclable gown will not contribute to the NHS's 88,000 tonnes of textile waste, sent to landfills each year - much of which could be recycled or reused if they were designed better.With a background in Textile Design, Fashion and Midwifery, the innovation is both aesthetically considered and Midwife approved. The gown will be supporting UNICEF and National Institute for Health and Care Excellence/NICE guidelines for recommended immediate postnatal care, replacing 'patienthood' with parenthood.
