Needle Counters
Needle Counters are essential surgical safety tools designed to track, store, and securely dispose of used suture needles during medical and veterinary procedures. Used widely in operating rooms, surgical centers, emergency care, and clinical environments, needle counters play a critical role in preventing retained surgical items (RSIs) and maintaining accurate instrument counts. Manufactured from durable, medical-grade plastic, many models feature adhesive backing for stable placement on surgical drapes or trays, and include secure compartments or foam inserts for organizing and locking needles in place. Needle counters are available in various formats, such as two-part, foam-based, magnetic, or hinged box designs, to suit different procedural workflows and surgical preferences. Color-coded, numbered slots make counting fast, accurate, and visual, helping meet hospital safety protocols and surgical count standards. Whether performing minor procedures or complex surgeries, needle counters help ensure accountability, staff safety, and efficient post-operative management. A vital addition to any surgical setup or sterile field, they are trusted by surgeons, scrub nurses, and operating room teams worldwide.
