# Ordering a Custom Pectus Brace

This guide walks you through how our pectus braces are designed, the information needed to order one, and the customization options available. The goal is to help you place an order confidently and ensure the best possible fit for your patient.

#### How Our Pectus Braces Are Custom-Made

Each pectus brace is designed using patient-specific anatomy. Rather than relying on standard sizing, braces are created from uploaded scans and measurements to target the exact deformity. This allows for:

- Improved comfort and fit
- More precise corrective pressure
- Better long-term compliance

Custom shaping ensures the brace applies force where it is needed while minimizing pressure on surrounding areas.

#### How to Order a Pectus Brace

 1\. \*\*Log into [FabOne](https://proto.fab.one/)

- Once logged in, scroll down to the **Orthotics** section.
- Click **Order** under **Pectus Brace**.

#### Required Measurements

Accurate measurements are essential for proper brace function. Please provide the following:

- **Length of deformity**
- **Width of deformity**
- **Circumference at the xiphoid process**

### Additional Measurement (Only if Shoulder Straps Are Selected)

- **Xiphoid to Inferior Scapula**

Measured in centimeters, taken over the shoulder, used specifically for shoulder strap sizing.

#### Customization Options

You can further tailor the brace by selecting from the following options:

- **Posterior Bar Material** - can be 3D printed or Aluminum
- **Foam Color** - choose from a variety of color options on the order form

 

#### FAQs

- **Can I add a rib flare extension later on?** Yes, you can absolutely start with a standard brace and add rib flares down the road if needed.
- **What is the warranty?** Weoffer a 6-month limited warranty on the brace straps, in which we will replace broken straps for free. If a different part of the brace breaks, send us a photo and describe what happened; our team will take it into consideration.
- **Do you offer refunds?** Because this is a custom product, we do not offer refunds. However, if there are any issues with the brace when you first receive it, let us know right away so we can adjust things if needed.
- **Do you offer temperature sensors or gel pads?** We no longer offer temperature sensors or gel pads due to manufacturer delays. We are working on offering them again in the future.
- **What are your recommended wear & cleaning details?**See our [post-fitting guide here.](https://help.proto.fab.one/en/article/pectus-brace-post-fitting-instructions-15riqfd/)
