Debakey Needle Holder Straight 21.6 cm (8.5) TC (Gold Handle)

Controlled Needle Handling Across Surgical Workflows

The DeBakey needle holder is a surgical instrument used to grasp, guide, and release needles during suturing. Its 8 1/2-inch format combines useful reach with a delicate profile, while the straight, tapered TC dusted jaws support controlled needle handling in cardiovascular, general surgery, and neurosurgical workflows. The ring handle provides a familiar grip for instrument manipulation, and the titanium construction contributes to a purpose-built design for repeated procedural handling. Suitable where access, visibility, and careful suture placement matter, this needle holder supports precise instrument work without adding unnecessary bulk to the operative field.

Use Cases

• Hold and guide needles during suturing in general surgery procedures.
• Support controlled needle handling in cardiovascular surgical workflows where access and visualization are important.
• Assist with delicate suturing tasks in neurosurgery using the tapered jaw profile and extended reach.
• Use the ring handle for familiar opening, closing, and repositioning during repetitive needle-handling tasks.
