Drews Needle Holder Curved 10.0 cm (4")

Controlled Needle Handling for Fine Surgical Work

The Drews needle holder is a 4 1/8" instrument designed to hold and guide needles during suturing. Its extra delicate curved jaws support precise needle control, while the round handle provides a familiar grasp for controlled manipulation. The integrated lock helps maintain the instrument’s position during relevant suturing tasks, supporting an orderly workflow where access and careful handling matter. Its compact format can be useful across cardiovascular, general surgery, and ophthalmic settings when working with fine sutures or in areas requiring measured instrument movement. The curved profile also supports approach and needle positioning while helping maintain a clear working view.

Use Cases

• Holding and guiding needles during fine suturing in cardiovascular procedures.
• Supporting controlled needle placement and retrieval during general surgery.
• Managing delicate suturing tasks in ophthalmic procedures where compact instrument handling is useful.
• Using the curved jaws to approach and position a needle around confined or angled working areas.
• Applying the lock when a maintained needle hold is appropriate during suturing workflow.
