Micheal Johnson believes BCMT to be Mandatory. Trial and error is not the way to mix bone cement, as some experts should teach right from the start that every step is important without wasting zero time as. The time is very vital as it can ruin the quality of the cement within a few seconds due to the viscosity of the cement, which is uncertain as temperature is more vital for each cement. If the cement is not mixed right, it might lead to revision surgery.

Richard Placencia believes BCMT to be Mandatory. Richard shares his 26-plus years of orthopaedic experience as a surgical technologist mixing bone cement and how he has had no formal training and learned trial by fire.
The training of the bcmt will be a valuable asset to any technician at any stage in their career. It's always a mystery on where to place the cement where humidity and room temperature are important aspects along of the experience. I recommend a technician with experience in mixing bone cement to handle when I get my knee replacement surgery done, as I know it is complicated.

Anthony Gauthier believes BCMT to be Mandatory. Cementing techniques can contribute a major factor in loosening, which can lead to revision surgery in the future. Cement mixing can impact patient outcomes and safety. BCMT training is vital to understand the technique, temperature, humidity, and viscosity which can lead to a better outcome.

When bone cement mixing fails, you need a revision surgery as the second surgery is more complicated than the initial surgery. The causes can be failure in fixation. The temperature can play a significant role as the temperature is hotter, then the process happens faster, and a colder temperature facilitates a slower process.
Bone cement mixing training is important. Many variables need to be appreciated for that implantation to be successful n the long run and reduce the revision surgery, which is more complicated.

Knowing I have a strstrongam trained in bone cement mixing program goes a long way in my comfort level that I can trust the cement I am using. The most important aspect of the surgery is cement mixing. It is taken care of by the technology. It is way out of the surgeons reach, so I believe bone cement training certification will give the surgeons the confidence in the surgery in their technologist and reduce revision.
