Popis: | This paper investigates the design requirements for physical function on developing child patients’ garment. The requirements of style design for physical functions were collected from two questionnaire surveys through personal interviews with child patients and medical staff in the Queen Mary Hospital, the teaching hospital of the University of Hong Kong. Chisquare tests were adopted to test for associations between the responses and a range of variables. The style specifications include styles design for different age groups, sexes, medical needs, design details for top and bottom garment, selection of fasteners and accessories. The results generated ideas for the design of child patients' garment based on their physical needs during hospitalization. |
