Stevens Needle Holder 15cm

Clinical Application

Designed for precision needle control in confined or delicate operative fields, this instrument is optimized for fine suturing tasks where visibility and tactile feedback are critical. Common uses include ophthalmic, plastic and reconstructive, ENT, vascular, and other microsurgical procedures that require controlled handling of small needles and delicate tissue.

Design & Configuration

The short, tapered jaw geometry minimizes the distance between the operator’s fingers and the needle tip, improving line-of-sight and reducing needle wobble during passes. Fine cross-serrations on the jaws provide secure engagement of small needles without excessive compressive force, helping preserve needle integrity and enabling precise placement in tight or layered closures. An ergonomic handle profile supports accurate fingertip control for suturing in delicate fields.
