  1. Appropriate Surgical Instruments and Needle Holders for a Surgical Procedure The success of surgery largely depends on the efficiency of a surgeon and of course on the surgical instruments they use. In modern surgical procedures, highly sophisticated instruments and equipment are used along with several traditional or general instruments. Whether surgeons need needle holders, general scissors, dressing and holding instruments, tissue forceps, rib retractors, or anything else, these instruments must be of good quality and bought from authentic suppliers. How to select appropriate surgical instruments? While selecting surgical instruments for a procedure, a few things should be kept in mind: · What procedure are you performing? Is it heart surgery of a specific type of knee surgery? Is it angioplasty or cholecystectomy? Depending on the surgery, the instruments change. Some instruments are a must in all types of surgeries but some instruments are required for organ-specific surgeries. · The surgical procedure is also important. A gall stone operation is quite common these days but gall stone operation can be done in two ways as an open method that is the traditional method and cholecystectomy also known as laparoscopic surgery. Understandably, instruments are chosen accordingly.

  2. · For operating infants, children, and adults, instruments including needle holders may differ. This is due to the body space accessibility and size organ. The same liver possesses different sizes in children and adults. Some common surgical instruments Some common surgical instruments that are used almost in all kinds of surgeries need special mention: · Needles and suture – Needles differ in their shapes and cutting edges. There are tapered needles and conventional cutting needles. According to the type of needle used, needle holders are chosen. The suture is either absolvable or non-absorbable. Again, the suture can be braided or non-braided.

  3. · Retractors - This instrument is used to opening up space inside the body. A retractor helps in performing the surgical procedure smoothly. · Scissors – the most common types of scissors are Vannas scissors, Castro Viejo scissors, McPherson-Vannas scissors. These scissors are cut tip scissors and fine tip scissors that are used depending on the surgical procedures. Again there are super-cut scissors that can impeccably cut a space without much damage to the tissues. Spring scissors are used for neurological and vascular uses. · Forceps - These are another important and indispensable instrument in almost all kinds of surgical procedures. Forceps can be broadly categorized as ring forceps and thumb forceps.

  4. Besides, there are hundreds of other kinds of instruments in use depending on the surgical procedures. Again, most specialized surgical procedures such as cardiothoracic surgery, urologic surgery, and orthopedic surgery need general instruments like needle holders, special instruments, and equipment. The quality of instruments should be good enough and as per the international standards.
