Frequently asked questions
Does the cross-serrated jaw design improve grip stability?
Yes, the cross-serrated working edge is specifically engineered with a central groove to maximize needle grip stability, preventing slippage during delicate surgical procedures.
Is this needle holder safe for individuals with latex allergies?
Absolutely. This product is 100% latex-free, ensuring it is safe for use with patients or medical staff who have sensitivities to natural rubber latex.
How does the Crile-Wood profile compare to other holders?
The Crile-Wood profile features a tapered, blunt tip that provides a perfect balance of utility. It is designed to be:
- More delicate than a standard Mayo-Hegar holder.
- More robust and stable than finer instruments like the Webster or Halsey.
Is this product suitable for government medical facilities?
Yes, this instrument is fully TAA compliant, making it an ideal choice for government procurement settings that require adherence to the Trade Agreements Act.
Does the ratchet mechanism provide reliable locking?
The integrated ratcheted finger rings allow the surgeon to securely lock the instrument onto a needle. This mechanism is essential for maintaining constant, reliable pressure during both interrupted and continuous suturing techniques.
Are these needle holders durable despite being disposable?
Yes. While intended for single-use to ensure aseptic safety, these are constructed from high-grade stainless steel, offering the same precision and build quality as traditional reusable surgical instruments.
Is the 6-inch length suitable for most surgical tasks?
The 6-inch length is specifically optimized for direct, line-of-sight suturing. Its length and straight configuration offer excellent control for handling small to medium-sized needles in various surgical fields.
Does the sterile packaging help with operating room efficiency?
Yes. Because the instruments arrive pre-sterilized and disposable, they help improve OR turnover times by eliminating the need for instrument reprocessing, sterilization cycles, and associated labor costs.
How many units are included in one case?
Each case contains 25 sterile, individually ready-to-use needle holders.
Is the material quality consistent with surgical standards?
Yes, these are crafted from high-grade stainless steel, meeting strict medical standards for corrosion resistance and structural integrity during surgical use.
