摘要
The use of ultrasonic instruments to remove PMMA bone cement during revision hip arthroplasty results in the production of fumes. These emissions were analysed under standardized laboratory conditions, when it was found that the MMA concentration measured was only 1/10(th) of the MAC value. In terms of occupational safety, the MMA fumes emitted may therefore be considered non-hazardous for the medical personnel.
