About
Valve XS Needleholders are precision instruments designed for minimally invasive heart valve procedures. Part of the Valve XS system by Aesculap/B. Braun, these needleholders feature slender shafts (available in 7", 9", and 11" lengths) to navigate small incisions or ports. Constructed with high-grade stainless steel or titanium, they incorporate tungsten carbide inserts for enhanced grip and durability. The ergonomic "Golf-Ball" handle design reduces hand fatigue, while color-coded handles facilitate quick identification. With atraumatic jaws and ratchet mechanisms, they ensure secure suture handling in delicate cardiac tissues, making them ideal for mitral, tricuspid, and aortic valve surgeries.
Designed for Precision in Cardiac SurgeryXS Needleholders by SCHILLING are engineered to meet the demanding requirements of minimally invasive cardiac surgery. Their fine construction and matte surface minimize glare and maximize control, which is critical in delicate medical procedures. These instruments provide surgeons with the precision necessary for optimal patient outcomes.
Built for Longevity and PerformanceCrafted from high-quality stainless steel, these needleholders are corrosion-resistant and maintain their sharpness and integrity even after repeated use and sterilization. The reusable nature of this instrument makes it a cost-effective solution for hospital settings, ensuring consistent performance with stringent hospital protocols.
