Other than packing do you do anything else to prevent the Tandem and Ring from falling out overnight? I know some centers use Abductor Pillows. Whats your opinion on those?

I know some places do. I can’t speak to how many. We still did some LDR where I trained, mostly for people who were too anxious or uncomfortable to undergo multiple insertions. I imagine there are some places that have LDR sources and still use them since it’s cheaper than getting an afterloader and new controller. I personally only do HDR now.
T-binder works fine for ours. The straps can go through the area connecting R & T to rectal retractor (depending on how far the retractor is placed). It can also go distal to the retractor and pull towards the patient's head.
