Brief Summary: The aim of the study was to assess the efficacy of bra application as a prevention of dehiscence in women with median sternotomy.

There is little evidence of the therapeutic action of the bra as a measure to prevent dehiscence of the surgical wound.

Aim: To assess the efficacy of bra application as a prevention of dehiscence in women with median sternotomy.

Methods: Randomised clinical trial; post-test control group in women undergoing cardiac surgery by mean sternotomy. Groups: application of post-surgical or non-surgical breast bra. Endpoint: incidence of dehiscence. Other variables: sociodemographic, signs of infection, pain, related to assessment of the wound on admission. Assessment of the surgical wound daily, at discharge, at month, 3 months and 6 months post discharge.
