Hospital gowns open from the back primarily to allow healthcare providers easy access to a patient's body for examinations, treatments, and procedures while maintaining some level of modesty for the patient. This design also accommodates the use of medical equipment like IV lines and monitors without hindrance. Additionally, back-opening gowns can be more easily adjusted or removed without causing discomfort to patients who may have limited mobility.
