Points to Note When Choosing Needle Holders

Material: The material of the needle holder directly affects its durability and ease of use. Common materials include stainless steel, titanium alloy, and cemented carbide.

 

Length and Head Shape: Select the appropriate length and head shape (straight, curved, etc.) based on the surgical site and operational requirements.

 

Clamping Force: Ensure the clamping force of the needle holder is suitable for the type of suture needle being used, avoiding insufficient or excessive clamping force that could lead to needle slippage or damage.

 

Sterilization Method: Select the appropriate sterilization method based on the surgical requirements, such as autoclaving or single-use sterilization.
