Crile Murray Needle Holder 15cm

Clinical Application

Precision needle control during suturing is the primary use case. This instrument is intended for grasping and steering suture needles during soft-tissue approximation in general surgery and other procedural settings where a secure, controlled needle grip is required. Its length and jaw geometry suit suturing in superficial to moderately deep surgical sites and confined working spaces.

Design & Configuration

The ring-handle design with a ratchet lock provides reproducible tactile feedback and secure retention of the needle between throws, allowing the surgeon to maintain consistent tension without continuous manual force. Short, robust jaws concentrate gripping force near the needle body to minimize needle rotation and slipping during passage. A 15 cm overall length balances reach and instrument control for common operative fields.
