Description: Pectus Carinatum or ‘Pigeon Chest’ is a condition that causes a prominence of the sternum or breastbone. It can be of varying severity and may cause anxiety to some. It is possible that more severe cases may interfere with full lung function.Due to the re-modelling characteristics of the bones and ligaments of the chest wall, pectus carinatum can be reduced or normalized with a compressive force on the chest. Over time with compression, the chest wall changes shape and flattens out, giving a more normal appearance.To achieve a compressive force on the chest, a chest orthosis (or brace) is used. This is simply called a pectus brace.The pectus brace is worn as much as possible until the chest deformity has normalized. This may take up to six months. After the shape has normalized the brace is worn at night only for a further three to six months to prevent a relapse. After this, the chest should remain in a corrected shape.How Can We Use The Product?Firstly, place the straps on the top of the product on your shoulders and adjust the horizontal plate according to the highest point of your chest. Then, adjust the straps on the sides of the plate so that they do not interfere with your normal breathing.CAN BE WORN UNDER CLOTHING AND COMFORTABLE FOR USE ALL DAY LONGFUNCTIONAL, EASY TO USE, DURABLEOur custom Pectus Carinatum brace features a low profile design with both anterior and posterior panels with a flexible surround that easily contours around the patient’s chest.
