Needle Holders

Needle holders are essential surgical instruments that enable needles to be guided safely during wound sutures. In our range you will find various models such as the Mayo-Hegar, Olsen-Hegar and Mathieu needle holders, each made from high-quality materials. These instruments ensure precise handling and prevent the needle from slipping. Whether disposable or reusable needle holders, we offer the right solution for every practice and clinic. Special versions for different types of operations are also available to ensure optimal use of the needle holder.

As the name of this medical instrument suggests, needle holders are designed to securely grip needles while suturing wounds. This allows the needle and suture material to be guided safely and precisely without the treating physician coming into direct contact with the wound. Depending on the type of wound and the area of application, you will find different models in our online shop. Additionally, we offer both disposable and reusable variants for medical practices and hospitals.

Types of Needle Holders

Over time, three distinct types of needle holders have become widely established. Their usage depends on the type of wound and the specific surgical field. The size and type of suture material also play a crucial role in selecting the appropriate model. In our online shop, you will find the following variants:

• Olsen-Hegar Needle Holder
• Mayo-Hegar Needle Holder
• Mathieu Needle Holder

Olsen-Hegar Needle Holder

The Olsen-Hegar needle holder is the oldest and most popular model among our customers and surgeons worldwide. This design features a long, narrow shape, making it easier to suture deep or hard-to-reach wounds. Its coarse gripping surface prevents the needle from slipping during use.

Mayo-Hegar Needle Holder

The Mayo-Hegar needle holder is similar to the Olsen-Hegar model but features a ring handle. Two circular openings at the end provide a light yet secure grip, ensuring ease of use during surgical procedures.

Mathieu Needle Holder

The Mathieu needle holder differs from the Mayo-Hegar model in both its grip design and overall shape and length. This model is spring-loaded and wedge-shaped, making it less suitable for deep sutures.
