Handheld surgical devices are becoming increasingly advanced. The development of advanced devices, like robotic hand-held surgical device for laparoscopic interventions, enhance a surgeon’s dexterity. Many innovations have been made, due to the need for high reliability, accuracy, and patient safety. New cordless handheld devices are one such innovation that has added a level of comfort and control for surgeons.

Needle holder, also called the needle driver, is a surgical instrument used by doctors and surgeons to hold a suturing needle for closing wounds during suturing and surgical procedures. Needle holders are very similar in shape to hemostats, featuring jaws and handles. Needle holders allow the needle to be locked into place for suturing, in a variety of tissue types. The parts of a needle holder are the jaws, the joint, and the needles. Selecting the needle holder depends upon the type of surgical needle. It is one of the most commonly used surgical tools for both human and animal procedures. Surgical operations demand surgeons to frequently engage in hand intensive activities, including suturing. The needle holder market is growing, due to a rise in minimally invasive surgical procedures in Saudi Arabia and an increase in outpatient surgeries. The market is further expected to grow and the prices are expected to fall, due to the entry of many new players in Saudi Arabia.
