Stevens Needle Holder 13cm

Clinical Application

This spring-action needle holder is intended for precise manipulation and placement of small to medium suture needles in confined or delicate operative fields. It provides controlled needle rotation and secure grip needed for delicate soft-tissue approximation during ophthalmic, plastic, ENT, vascular and microsurgical procedures, as well as fine-layer closures in reconstructive cases.

Design & Configuration

The spring-action geometry offers rapid, single-handed opening and closing with a tactile feel that supports fine motor control. Short, fine jaws minimize obscuration of the operative field and reduce leverage on the needle to improve accuracy when passing through fragile tissues. The compact 13 cm length balances reach and maneuverability for both superficial and limited-space suturing.
