Crile-Wood Needle Holder

The Crile-Wood Needle Holder is a precision surgical instrument designed for the secure grasping and controlled manipulation of surgical needles during delicate suturing procedures. It is widely used in vascular surgery, cardiovascular surgery, plastic and reconstructive surgery, general surgery, microsurgical-assisted procedures, and other specialties where accurate needle control is essential. The instrument is also commonly referred to as Crile-Wood Needle Driver, Crile-Wood Surgical Needle Holder, Crile-Wood Suture Needle Holder, and Surgical Needle Driver.

Designed with fine, cross-serrated jaws, the Crile-Wood Needle Holder provides a stable grip on surgical needles while minimizing needle rotation during suturing. Its slender profile and delicate working end make it particularly suitable for precise tissue approximation in confined operative fields. A ratchet locking mechanism securely holds the needle during use, while ergonomically balanced ring handles provide excellent tactile feedback, control, and comfort throughout surgical procedures.

Crile-Wood Needle Holders are commonly used for vascular repair, cardiovascular procedures, plastic and reconstructive surgery, soft tissue approximation, facial surgery, hand surgery, microsurgical-assisted procedures, and general wound closure. They are available in multiple lengths and jaw configurations to accommodate various surgical techniques and suture sizes.

The instrument is typically manufactured from high-quality surgical stainless steel with a corrosion-resistant satin or matte finish to reduce operating room glare. It is reusable and intended for repeated cleaning and sterilization according to established hospital sterilization protocols. Tungsten Carbide (T/C) versions are also available for surgeons who require enhanced needle grip and increased jaw durability.
