Orthopedic Surgery Bone Cement

Acrylic bone cement is recommended for the immediate and long-term fixation of metal and polyethylene orthopaedic implants that are intended for use with cement.input:
output:This self-curing and radiopaque cement is available in both standard (EvoCem 1) and low viscosity (EvoCem 3) versions, with or without gentamycin antibiotic. Antibiotic cement is appropriate for the treatment of revision arthroplasties, septic replacements, and patients with infectious risks.input:
output:The selection of viscosity is contingent upon the mode of cement application and the location of implantation.

– digital application on the superficial surfaces of the bone: standard viscosity

– low viscosity: syringe application in deep bone cavities or diaphyseal bones in conjunction with a cement restrictor.input:
output:Formulation specificity:• flash release within the first hours of implantation (0.8mg as early as 18 hours after implantation)

• long-term, continuous, efficient diffusion• Each 40g dose contains the equivalent of 1 g of gentamycin base (gentamycin sulphate) and produces a local concentration that exceeds the MIC (minimal inhibitory concentration).
