Crile-Murray needle holder 6" straight serrated TC jaws gold ring handle

Controlled Needle Handling Across Surgical Workflows

The Crile-Murray needle holder is a 6-inch instrument designed to grasp and control surgical needles during suturing. Its straight profile supports a direct working approach, while the serrated TC jaws and gold ring handle provide recognizable handling features for routine instrument control. The 6-inch format balances access with practical hand positioning across cardiovascular, general, neurosurgical, and plastic surgery settings. It can support organized needle handling during closure and other suturing tasks where a dedicated needle holder is required, helping integrate precise instrument manipulation into established operating-room workflows without adding unnecessary bulk.

Use Cases

• Grasp and guide needles during suturing in general surgery procedures.
• Support controlled needle handling in cardiovascular surgical workflows.
• Provide a dedicated needle-holding instrument for neurosurgical suturing tasks.
• Assist with needle control during plastic surgery closure and reconstructive techniques.
• Use the straight instrument profile for direct access during routine needle-passing and suture-placement tasks.
