How To Measure ABC Mastectomy Bra?

Measure for the Band size:

• Measure circumference at bra band. 
• Measurement should be snug. 
• Have patient hold arms at sides or on hips while you measure the circumference. 
• Add either 4 or 5 inches to the circumference measurement to achieve an even number. 
• For the patient who presents in a wheelchair:
  - Some patients can stand even if they cannot ambulate.
  - Its ok to ask patient if she can stand.
  - If patient cannot stand, measure her while seated.
  - If seated, do not add extra to the chest circumference measurement.

Measure for the Cup size:

• Measure from the center of the sternum, over the apex of the natural breast, under the arm, to the center of the spine. 
• Measurement should be taut, not snug. 
• Double the measurement. 
• Calculate the difference between the cup measurement and the band measurement. 
• The difference determines the cup size :
  0 inch = AA Cup
  1 inch = A Cup
  2 inch = B Cup
  3 inch = C Cup
  4 inch = D Cup
  5 inch = DD Cup
  6 inch = DDD Cup

	Mastectomy bras are designed with a pocket on the inside of the bra cup. This pocket is designed to hold your breast prosthesis in place. Additionally, there are design features that allow for the added weight of a silicone breast form. Customer care - 9/9/2017 6:13:34 AM
