The most common components of a Laparoscopic Needle Holder include:
1.Ratchet Mechanism: Many laparoscopic needle holders have a ratchet mechanismincorporated into the handle. This mechanism allows the surgeon to lock the jaws inplace, maintaining a firm grip on the needle without constant pressure on the handleThe ratchet can be released when necessary, providing flexibility and control during
suturing 2,Insulated Coating: In some cases, the shaft and jaws of a laparoscopic needle holdermay be coated with an insulating material, such as PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), tominimize electrical conductivity, This is particularly important when electrosurgicaldevices are used during laparoscopic procedures to prevent unintended tissue damage. 3. Disposable or Reusable: Laparoscopic needle holders are available as both disposableand reusable instruments. Disposable needle holders are commonly used to minimizethe risk of cross-contamination and ensure sterility. Reusable needle holders aremade of high-quality materials and can withstand repeated sterilization processes.
