Frequently asked questions
Are these needle holders suitable for 6-0 sutures?
Yes, these are specifically optimized for fine surgical work. They are designed to securely grip small needles, particularly those used with 5-0 and 6-0 suture materials, thanks to their specialized cross-serrated jaws.
Is the material safe for patients with latex allergies?
Yes, these instruments are completely latex-free. They are not manufactured with natural rubber latex, ensuring safety for patients with such sensitivities.
Does the ratchet mechanism provide a secure lock?
Absolutely. The instrument features a reliable ratchet locking mechanism integrated into the finger ring handles. This allows you to lock the jaws in place, providing the stability and security needed during delicate suturing procedures.
Why is the disposable format beneficial for a busy clinic?
Choosing a disposable instrument offers significant operational advantages: 1. Eliminates reprocessing costs and time associated with cleaning and sterilization. 2. Guarantees aseptic technique for every procedure. 3. Reduces the risk of cross-contamination by providing a fresh, sterile tool every time.
Is this tool effective for confined surgical areas?
Yes, the 4-3/4” length is specifically engineered for excellent maneuverability. The short, compact design makes it an ideal choice for confined surgical fields, such as those found in ophthalmology, dentistry, and delicate plastic surgery.
Does the jaw design help prevent needle rotation?
Yes, the jaws feature delicate cross-serrations with a central groove. This precise design is optimized to cradle the needle, providing a superior grip that prevents the needle from slipping or rotating during use.
Is this needle holder government procurement compliant?
Yes, this product is TAA Compliant. It meets the requirements of the Trade Agreements Act, making it suitable for purchase by government entities.
What is the quality of the stainless steel used?
Despite being disposable, these holders are constructed from durable, high-quality stainless steel. This ensures that the instrument maintains structural integrity and performance consistency throughout the duration of a single surgical procedure.
How many units are included in each case?
Each case (CS) contains 25 individually packaged, sterile Derf Needle Holders, providing a convenient supply for your surgical requirements.
Are these instruments ready to use right out of the package?
Yes, they arrive factory new and sterile. They are pre-assembled and individually packaged so that they can be used immediately upon opening in a sterile environment.
