Frequently asked questions
Is this needle holder suitable for very delicate procedures?
Yes, it is designed with an “Extra Delicate” classification. This specific design reduces the mass of the instrument and maintains fine tolerances, making it highly effective for specialized tasks requiring precision handling and control of small suture needles.
Will the smooth jaws damage fine needles or sutures?
The smooth working edge style is specifically chosen to minimize trauma and marring. By eliminating harsh teeth, this instrument ensures that delicate sutures or materials are held securely without tearing or surface abrasion.
Is this made from high-quality, durable stainless steel?
Yes, this instrument is constructed from high-grade stainless steel. This material choice ensures the needle holder is robust enough for repeated sterilization cycles and long-term use in surgical environments.
Does this tool offer a secure grip without a lock?
It features a double leaf spring thumb handle mechanism. This design provides precise, constant tension control, allowing for delicate manipulation and grip adjustments during a procedure without the need for an integrated locking mechanism.
Is the curved design helpful for specific angles?
Absolutely. It features a ‘curved on flat’ profile. This specific geometry is engineered to assist with specialized access and handling angles, which is critical during ophthalmic or other precise micro-surgical procedures.
Is this product TAA compliant?
Yes, the Sklar Anis Needle Holder is TAA compliant. It meets the requirements for procurement regulations, making it a suitable choice for various governmental and organizational purchasing needs.
Is the material free from natural rubber latex?
Yes, the product is not made with natural rubber latex, making it safe for use in environments where latex sensitivities are a concern.
How long is this instrument?
This model has an overall length of 5-1/2 inches, providing an ideal length for fine-motor control during microsurgical or ophthalmic work.
Is this tool reusable after sterilization?
Yes, it is a reusable instrument designed for repeated use. It is engineered to withstand standard reprocessing protocols required for surgical tools.
What type of surgical procedures is this best for?
It is ideal for delicate surgical, ophthalmic, or micro-surgical procedures. Because of its smooth jaw, fine profile, and spring tension, it is perfect for any task that demands the secure handling of fine-gauge needles where material integrity is paramount.
