Crile-Wood needle holder 7 straight serrated jaws ring handle

Controlled Needle Handling Across Surgical Workflows

The Crile-Wood needle holder is a 7-inch instrument designed to grasp and control needles during suturing. Its straight, serrated jaws provide a defined contact pattern for managing the needle, while the ring handle supports familiar hand positioning and controlled instrument handling. The 7-inch length offers practical reach for a range of operative fields without changing the instrument’s straightforward profile. Suitable for suture-related tasks in cardiovascular, general surgery, neurosurgery, and plastic surgery settings, it can support organized needle control during closure and repair workflows. Its conventional needle-holder format helps teams maintain consistent handling across procedures where deliberate needle manipulation is required.

Use Cases

• Grasp and guide needles during routine suturing and closure tasks.
• Support controlled needle handling in cardiovascular surgical workflows.
• Assist with needle manipulation during general surgery procedures.
• Provide a familiar needle-holder format for neurosurgical and plastic-surgery suturing tasks.
