Halsey Perma Sharp™ Needle Holder, 13 cm

The Halsey Perma Sharp™ Needle Holder, 13 cm is a precision surgical instrument designed for controlled needle handling during suturing, tissue approximation, and wound closure procedures. Its compact configuration provides close access to the operative field, making it particularly useful when precise needle manipulation and controlled instrument movement are required. The Halsey pattern is well suited to delicate surgical tasks where a smaller needle holder can provide improved maneuverability. With an overall length of 13 cm , this needle holder offers a practical balance between reach and fine control. Its compact working profile allows the surgeon to work close to the surgical site without the additional length of larger needle holders. This can be advantageous for superficial, confined, and delicate operative fields where accurate positioning of the needle is essential. The Perma Sharp™ working jaws are designed to provide secure engagement of surgical needles during needle loading, positioning, tissue penetration, and release. Controlled needle grasping is essential for maintaining the correct needle trajectory and supporting precise suture placement. The precision-oriented jaw surfaces help provide consistent handling during repeated suturing movements. The Halsey needle holder can be used for a variety of soft-tissue and precision suturing applications. Depending on the specific procedure, it may be incorporated into instrument sets for wound closure, plastic and reconstructive surgery, dermatological procedures, periodontal and oral surgery, gynecological procedures, and other applications requiring accurate needle manipulation. Selection should always be based on the surgical technique, needle dimensions, suture material, tissue characteristics, and accessibility of the operative site. The compact 13 cm length can also support efficient handling during procedures where excessive instrument length could reduce maneuverability. The design allows the surgeon to make controlled movements while maintaining a stable grip on the needle. This is particularly useful for fine sutures and procedures requiring careful tissue approximation. Constructed from surgical-grade stainless steel , the Halsey Perma Sharp™ Needle Holder is designed for durability, strength, and resistance to corrosion. Stainless steel construction also supports routine cleaning, disinfection, inspection, and sterilization when appropriate validated reprocessing procedures are followed. Proper care is essential for maintaining the working condition of the jaws and moving components. Following use, the instrument should be cleaned promptly according to established healthcare facility protocols. Particular attention should be given to the jaw surfaces and hinge, where biological material may accumulate. After cleaning, the instrument should be thoroughly rinsed and dried before inspection. Healthcare professionals should check jaw alignment, locking function, surface condition, and overall mechanical performance before sterilization. Sterilization should be performed using a validated method appropriate for reusable surgical instrumentation and consistent with applicable manufacturer instructions. Regular inspection and correct reprocessing help preserve the precision of the working surfaces and support reliable performance over repeated clinical use. The Halsey Perma Sharp™ Needle Holder, 13 cm combines a compact surgical design, precision Perma Sharp™ jaws, and durable stainless steel construction to provide dependable needle control during delicate suturing procedures. Its practical length and precision-focused configuration make it a valuable addition to professional surgical instrument sets.
