Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Antibiotic bone cement is the important method for the prevention and treatment of infection after artificial hip replacement and renovation. OBJECTIVE:To review the research progress of antibiotic bone cement. METHODS:A computer-based online search was performed in PubMed database, CNKI database, Chinese Biomedical Literature database, VIP database and Wanfang database for the literatures from 1978 to 2012. The key words were“bone cement, antibiotic bone cement, infection, joint replacement”in English and Chinese. RESUTLS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 335 literatures were screened out. Final y, 29 literatures were included for in-depth analysis after the primary screen through reading the title, abstract and ful-text. Antibiotic bone cement has been widely used in the treatment of infection after artificial joint replacement and renovation as it can reduce the risk of infection after initial joint replacement and renovation. The material properties and mechanical properties wil not change after bone cement mixed with appropriate amount of antibiotic. Different antibiotics in the bone cement have different release rates, which were closely related with the porosity of bone cement. Adding the additive that used for increasing the porosity of bone cement can increase the antibiotic release.
