Approval Order Statement Approval for the addition to the labeling of the following warning statement: "do not centriguge osteobond copolymer bone cement. Although centrifugation has been shown in some cases to improve the physical strength of the cured cement by removal of entrapped air and other gases, a uniform dispersion of the radiopacifier cannot be assured. Therefore, the use of centrigugation is not advisable. ". |
