I bought this brace 5 weeks after I had a CABGx4 surgery. I wish I had found out about it before my operation. It is a big help with standing up, sitting down, and giving me an additional sense of security. I am having issues with the bottom 3 inches, of my sternum incision. When I sit down or stand up, the incision creases with movement, and is irritated. It is the last of my incision not healed yet. This brace keeps it from creasing, and helps keep my sternum tight. It is very adjustable. I was also having issues with my shirt irritating my incision, as I move, and while laying down, rising up, and walking, with my sternum pillow. This brace can be worn under a shirt, and solve this problem. I messaged my surgeon, and highly recommend this brace to him. I have two improvements, I can recommend. The top and bottom of the brace would be better, if there was separation adjustments, not just one for all. I would also recommend a couple of straps , to attach to my belt, to keep the brace from riding up the chest. I am a large guy, and this is the only problem found. This is a must buy, for anyone having open heart surgery. Review: So integral to post open heart/sternotomy surgery! - I (female in my 40s) bought this ahead of my surgery. I wasn't sure if I would use it all the time, but was certain I would appreciate it when in a car to protect my chest incision. I wore it home from the hospital because the metal stays made me feel safer with a belt across that fragile and tender area. After maybe the second time I took it off, I decided it would be better to just wear it all the time. The comfort level in my healing was noticeably better with the brace on. I feel like it was way better than the heart pillow the hospital gives patients. When even yawning is painful, every bit of structured support that you can find is a blessing. It is very well built. You will need a helper to make the Velcro adjustment easier as it's on the back, but it's so useful. The shoulder straps release easily and have enough structure to keep their after months of 24-7 use. It's a very quality build, seriously. The fabric shows no wear and the Velcro felt doesn't, either. I spot or hand wash when something has spilled on it (once!). I will echo what others have said and recommend that ladies remove the pads on the chest. I believe they are for reshaping that curve to a man's body. It's not the most attractive thing to wear, but I want to heal. I'll worry about looks later. The size was correct. Check the chart. The original of this item is called the Heart - Hugger. It is only sold in the UK through the medical supply that created it. The price point of the Heart - Hugger is $140 plus shipping from the UK. This is less than half that price. I'm very happy with the cost, have recommended it to several people already, and for the algorithm: it works well. ## Features - High-Tech Breathable Fabric: Made from lightweight, breathable materials with a soft plush liner for superior comfort. - Adjustable Compression: Features a side lace system with Hook & Loop, allowing for precise compression control for optimal support. - Easy Front Closure: Three front buckles ensure painless on/off wear, even with limited mobility. - Customizable Support: Includes two removable pressure pads wrapped in plush fabric for targeted support. - Available in 5 Sizes: Perfect fit for chest circumferences from 29.5” to 50.5”, ensuring comfort and effectiveness during recovery. - Ideal for Post-Surgery and Injury: Provides necessary stabilization for post-surgery recovery, including after open-heart surgery or sternum fractures. - All-Day Comfort: Designed for long-term wear without compromising on comfort or breathability. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B081M99W2X | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #207,779 in Health & Household ( See Top 100 in Health & Household ) #40 in Chest Braces | | Brand Name | ORTONYX | | Closure Type | Buckle, Hook & Loop | | Color | Black/Gray | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (471) | | Included Components | Chest Brace | | Item Weight | 400 Grams | | Manufacturer | UFEELGOOD | | Material | Polyester Blend | | Model Name | Chest Brace Post-Surgical Support / Open Heart Surgery, Sternum Fractures Rehabilitation | | Model Number | ACHB5255 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | ACHB5255-XXL | | Product Care Instructions | Hand wash in cool water with mild soap.

The fracture is displaced meaning the edges aren’t together. These braces have been life savers for me. I first bought a medium then also bought a small as I am between sizes. This brace has helped stabilize my fracture and gives me something I can cough against if needed. I wear this 24/7 unless bathing or changing clothes and have now for two months. Pros: 1) adjustable — the back has Velcro and can be customized for size. Shoulder are also adjustable (see cons). 2) the bracing and foam padding are substantial and effective 3) I can tighten this down to keep the bone from shifting as I walk so that it functions l like a cast. 4) no odor problems even though I’ve had to wear this for over two months now 5) if you are tall you should be okay with the shoulder straps—they are super long. Cons: 1) shoulder straps are super long. While adjustable they sometimes rub across my skin in the neckline. If the Velcro does this then it sometimes rubs my shoulders/neck but this is an issue that can be addressed with different clothing and is more of an annoyance. 2) Pet Hair: as with anything with Velcro: it can get full of debris such as pet hair and lint especially since this is a 24/7 item. Since it is black pet hair is very visible. ## Frequently Bought Together - ORTONYX Sternum and Thorax Support Chest Brace Post Open Heart Surgery Sternum Fractures Rehabilitation / ACHB5255-XXL - Seat Belt Pillow for Mastectomy Post-Surgery, Heart Surgery Recovery Support Cushion for Chest Chemo Port Pacemaker Bypass Hysterectomy Recovery Pillow (Gray) - Armor Adult Unisex Chest Support Brace to Stabilize the Thorax after Open Heart Surgery, Thoracic Procedure, or Fractures of the Sternum or Rib Cage, Tan Color, Size XX-Large, for Men and Women --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/203846909-ortonyx-sternum-and-thorax-support-chest-brace-post-open-heart](https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/203846909-ortonyx-sternum-and-thorax-support-chest-brace-post-open-heart) --- *Product available on Desertcart Thailand* *Store origin: TH* *Last updated: 2026-04-28*
