Purpose and properties
BonOs® R NF Genta is a fast-setting acrylic resin with addition of gentamicin sulfate for use in bone surgery. Mixing the two separate sterile components produces a ductile bone cement which, after hardening, fixes the implant and transfers stresses produced during movement evenly to the bone. The added antibiotic, gentamicin sulfate, protects the implant and the surrounding tissue
from colonization with pathogens that are sensitive to gentamicin. BonOs® R NF Genta cement powder also contains insoluble zirconium dioxide as an X-ray contrast medium. BonOs® R NF Genta does not emit a signal and does not pose a safety risk in a magnetic resonance environment..
BonOs® R NF Genta is indicated for fixation of synthetic resin and metal prosthesis components during partial or total replacement of the hip and knee as well as other joints, if an infection with organisms that are sensitive to gentamicin is diagnosed or suspected. The antibiotic provides protection against bacterial colonization of the implant and the surrounding tissue.
The use of BonOs® R NF Genta is contraindicated, if muscle wasting or euromuscular compromise in the affected limb renders the procedure unjustifiable. BonOs® R NF Genta should not be used in the event of known hypersensitivity to any of its constituents or in patients with severe renal failure.
