I feel like working around clothes/gown takes so much time and I'm not quite sure how to do it.
For example, when you are percussing the lungs, do you untie the back for them? Have them untie/retie it? Etc.
Also what do you do to auscultate the heart with a gown? Aortic, pulmonic, and tricuspid through the top and reach from the side to do mitral? I feel like that is a pain because they always end up sitting on the gown so I can't reach from the side easily.
If you have any tips for clothing, that would be appreciated as well!
