T-binders secure dressings in place after rectal and perianal surgeries. The double T-binder is for men, while the single T-binder is for women. A breast binder is specifically used to support the breasts after breast surgery, not by breastfeeding mothers. Straight abdominal binders are applied with the person supine. A straight abdominal binder is secured in front of the body by safety pins, Velcro, zippers, hooks, or other closures. The top part is at the person's waist. The lower part is over the hips.
