"Supporters said it’s led to a 41 per cent reduction in bed sores, a 30 per cent reduction in falls and patients being discharged from hospital an average 1.8 days sooner."

Those are some wild numbers if that can be backed up with data. Always found hospital gowns dehumanizing and never put them on when given instructions to during yearly physical exams, never had an issue with it it or any doctors asking me to put it on, stringently following procedures and protocols when there's blatant evidence in your face that it's harmful seems a common trend in healthcare, at least in the US, probably for liability reasons.
