Methyl methacrylate (plastic bone cement) can be prepared by mixing a vial of liquid monomer with a powder. The monomer can release a toxic vapor. We measured the exposure of operating room personnel to this toxic substance. We believe that an awareness of the potential toxicity of the monomer is important and that devices to limit its exposure to personnel should be used in operating rooms.
甲基丙烯酸甲酯(塑料骨水泥)可通过将一小瓶液体单体与粉末混合来制备。该单体可释放有毒蒸气。我们测量了手术室人员对此种有毒物质的暴露情况。我们认为,了解单体的潜在毒性很重要,并且手术室应使用限制人员接触该物质的装置。
