Barraquer Needle Holder Curved 9.5 cm (3.7)

Delicate Curved Control for Precise Needle Handling

The Barraquer needle holder 3 3/4" with very delicate curved jaws and a round handle is designed to grasp and guide needles during suturing. Its compact length supports controlled handling in focused operative fields, while the curved jaw profile can help approach the needle from a practical angle when access or visualization is limited. The delicate construction suits fine needle manipulation across cardiovascular, general surgery, and ophthalmic workflows. Without a lock, the instrument supports direct, responsive handling and quick repositioning throughout repeated needle passes, helping maintain an efficient manual technique without adding a locking mechanism to the grip.

Use Cases

• Guide and reposition fine needles during cardiovascular suturing tasks where controlled manual handling is required.
• Support general surgery needle handling during tissue approximation and routine closure work.
• Assist ophthalmic suturing workflows that call for a delicate needle holder and a curved working profile.
• Use the curved jaws to approach and grasp needles from an angle suited to the operative field.
• Perform repeated needle passes with direct, non-locking control through the round handle.
