Crile Wood Perma Sharp™ Needle Holder, 15 cm

The Crile Wood Perma Sharp™ Needle Holder, 15 cm is a precision surgical needle holder designed to provide controlled grasping and manipulation of suture needles during surgical closure and soft-tissue procedures. Its Crile-Wood pattern combines a practical jaw configuration with a balanced handle design, while the Perma Sharp™ working surface is engineered for dependable needle control during repeated professional use. Needle holders are essential surgical instruments for suturing because they allow clinicians to securely grasp, position, rotate, and guide a suture needle through tissue. The 15 cm Crile Wood Needle Holder offers a versatile length for procedures where a combination of access, control, and instrument maneuverability is required. The Crile-Wood design is widely associated with precision suturing applications. Its jaws are designed to provide a controlled grip on the needle while allowing the surgeon to make deliberate movements during tissue closure. Proper needle placement within the jaws is important for maintaining control and avoiding unnecessary damage to the needle or instrument. The Perma Sharp™ designation indicates a precision-oriented jaw configuration designed to maintain effective needle engagement over repeated use when properly maintained. A reliable gripping surface can help reduce needle slippage and support consistent suturing technique. The instrument should nevertheless be used according to the manufacturer’s intended application and inspected regularly. With a 15 cm length , this needle holder provides a useful balance between reach and handling. It can be incorporated into general surgery, soft-tissue surgery, wound closure, and other appropriate surgical procedures requiring controlled needle manipulation. The specific suitability depends on the surgical field, suture material, needle size, and clinician preference. The instrument is designed for controlled professional use rather than as a general grasping forceps. It should not be used to clamp vessels, grasp tissue, or manipulate objects outside its intended function, as inappropriate use can damage the precision jaws. Excessive force or incorrect needle placement may also affect the instrument’s performance. Before each procedure, the Crile Wood Perma Sharp™ Needle Holder should be inspected for jaw alignment, surface damage, corrosion, looseness, or other abnormalities. The jaws should close evenly and provide appropriate needle engagement. Any instrument exhibiting damage or impaired function should be removed from service according to institutional procedures. If supplied as a reusable surgical instrument, it should be thoroughly cleaned and sterilized between patients. Blood, tissue, and other biological contaminants should be removed promptly after use. Reprocessing should follow validated manufacturer instructions and established hospital or surgical infection-control protocols. Particular attention should be given to the jaws, box lock, hinge, and other moving components during cleaning. Appropriate lubrication of instrument joints may be required according to the manufacturer’s reprocessing recommendations. Proper storage helps prevent unnecessary impact and protects the precision jaw surfaces. The Crile Wood Perma Sharp™ Needle Holder, 15 cm can complement surgical needle holders, tissue forceps, scissors, retractors, hemostatic instruments, and other instruments within a comprehensive surgical tray.
