The lightest and most comfortable chest support available.



QualiBreath can help your recovery after open heart surgery or other interventions in the chest.
Decrease pain, decrease the risk of complications, minimise clicking and popping of your sternum bone and breathe easier with the help of QualiBreath.
It is a patented chest harness with integrated handles for increased support that was designed by a nurse. Created specifically to help you recover better, faster and with less complications after open heart surgery.
QualiBreath supports your sore respiratory muscles, your chest and your rib cage with its thorax surrounding design that stabilises the sternum from the sides.

The vest features special handles that allow you to increase the support when you need it most. Coughing, deep breathing and early return to normal activity can be very painful after your surgery yet are very important for a quick and complication free recovery. Use the handles to get extra support also when sneezing or straining.

Using a support such as QualiBreath has been scientifically proven to reduce complications and pain after open heart surgery via a sternotomy.
QualiBreath is the only dual function chest support binder (constant support plus integrated handles) and it is most likely the most comfortable external chest brace available.

QualiBreath splints your chest 24/7 and you won’t need to be hugging a pillow. When feeling pain, straining or about to cough or sneeze, simply grab the integrated handles, which are always ready in the right position, to increase the support around your rib cage.

Overall
I wish I had known about QualiBreath sooner so I could have worn it immediately after the surgery.
Overall
It’s a massive help after my open heart surgery. Can only cough properly when I have this on!
Overall
We purchased this product for my husband - he underwent open heart surgery at the end of August. Unfortunately, he had residual sternal pain postoperatively and after imaging, it was seen that he had some mild separation of his sternum in some areas. He is high risk for repeat surgery due to airway issues - so we were looking for non surgical options. We wanted to trial a brace to help stabilize his sternum and possibly bring it together for better healing. Your website was great - really seemed to fit the bill of what we needed. The first few days of wearing this brace he felt it definitely brought his sternum together and stabilized things. When he would take it off - he could tell things were different. Now that he has been wearing it almost a week - his pain has greatly improved in that area and he prefers keeping it on since the discomfort is gone when he wears it. The other thing to note is that he is a muscular 46 year old guy - he had surgery for an aortic aneurysm repair, not for heart disease. So - he is used to being active. He would not wear something like this if he didn’t get relief or comfort from it. We chuckle that it is his man-bra…although laughing makes his chest hurt, he now instinctively squeezes his brace handles and that helps. :) We are grateful to have this brace - it gives us hope that his sternum will have a chance to heal smoothly without further intervention.

My husband really likes the support it gives him for his chest/sternum-especially while coughing.
