dress shirt for stroke patient

This woven long-sleeve men’s dress shirt is designed for stroke patients who do not have full mobility of their hands and arms. The shirt uses laser cutting on nonstretchable fabric. This laser cut, which is invisible, is important to the stretchability of the shirt. It allows more space for arm movement, which helps patients put on and take off the shirt with one hand. In the future, the stretchable side could be upgraded with smart textiles that have sensors woven into the fabric for use with different medical purposes, such as diagnosis and follow-up after a stroke.
