Crile Wood Perma Sharp™ Needle Holder, Left Handed, 15cm

The Crile Wood Perma Sharp™ Needle Holder, Left Handed, 15 cm is a precision surgical instrument designed for secure grasping, positioning, and manipulation of surgical needles during suturing procedures. Its left-handed configuration provides an ergonomic solution for surgeons who prefer or require left-hand instrument handling, while the established Crile Wood pattern delivers dependable control during needle placement and tissue closure. With an overall length of 15 cm , this needle holder provides a practical balance between surgical reach, visibility, and handling precision. The size is suitable for a broad range of procedures where controlled needle manipulation is required without the additional reach of longer needle holders. The instrument can assist with accurate needle loading, positioning, passage through tissue, and release during surgical closure. The Perma Sharp™ jaw design is intended to provide a reliable working surface for secure needle engagement. Maintaining stable control of the needle is essential for accurate suturing, particularly when the surgeon must maintain a specific needle angle or pass the needle through tissue in a controlled manner. The precision-focused jaws support consistent handling while helping minimize unnecessary needle movement. The left-handed configuration distinguishes this instrument from conventional right-handed needle holders. It is designed to accommodate left-hand surgical technique and may be particularly useful in operating rooms where instruments are selected according to individual surgeon preference, procedural ergonomics, or surgical positioning. Proper instrument selection should always consider the surgeon’s technique and the requirements of the specific procedure. The Crile Wood pattern is commonly associated with a compact, practical needle holder configuration suitable for controlled suturing. This makes the instrument appropriate for applications such as soft-tissue closure, wound repair, ligation, general surgical suturing, and selected specialty procedures. Its precise application depends on the needle size, suture material, tissue characteristics, and operative technique. Manufactured from surgical-grade stainless steel , the Crile Wood Perma Sharp™ Needle Holder is designed for durability, structural strength, and resistance to corrosion. The material also supports routine cleaning, disinfection, and sterilization procedures for reusable surgical instruments when these processes are carried out according to validated protocols. Proper instrument maintenance is essential for preserving the performance of the needle holder. Following use, the instrument should be cleaned promptly to prevent biological material from drying on the jaws, hinge, or other functional surfaces. Thorough rinsing and drying should follow cleaning. The instrument should then be inspected for jaw alignment, locking function, surface condition, and signs of wear or damage before sterilization. Sterilization should be performed using a validated method appropriate for reusable surgical instrumentation and consistent with the applicable manufacturer’s instructions. Regular inspection and appropriate reprocessing help preserve the precision of the jaws and reliable operation of the instrument over repeated clinical use. The Crile Wood Perma Sharp™ Needle Holder, Left Handed, 15 cm combines a specialized left-handed configuration, precision Perma Sharp™ jaws, practical 15 cm length, and durable stainless steel construction. It is a valuable addition to surgical instrument sets where controlled needle handling and ergonomic left-hand operation are important considerations.
