This heart surgery bear is firmly stuffed to be a cough support during heart surgery recovery. Designed with the help of cardiologists and critical care nurses to ease pain and discomfort while coughing, moving, sneezing, and even laughing after surgery.
 
Originally created for supporting open-heart surgery patients, the heart surgery bear is also helpful for those recovering from gastric bypass or bariatric surgery, thoracic surgery, Cesarean Sections, hernia repairs, mastectomy surgery/breast cancer surgery.
 
At 17 1/2" tall and dressed in hospital scrubs, each heart surgery bear is firmly stuffed to be a therapeutic pillow as it holds sternal wires and stitches in place. The hospital scrubs have an imprint of a sewn patch with "PATCHED UP AND READY TO ROCK!" in the middle.
