A hand-held manual surgical instrument designed to grasp a suture needle when pushing/pulling the needle and attached suture through tissue during suturing. It is typically made of metal and has short serrated jaws at the distal end to provide better grip of the needle. It is available in a wide variety of sizes and designs, such as: 1) a self-retaining, scissors-like design with ring handles at the proximal end; 2) a tweezers-like design with bowed, hinged handles that are operated by squeezing them together; and 3) a heavy-duty pincer-like design. Some types may utilize inserts made of hard materials (e.g., carbide) and include scissor blades. This is a reusable device.

A hand-held manual instrument designed primarily for non-dedicated grasping of devices, sponges and/or dressings during a procedure; it is neither intended for tissue manipulation nor endoscopic use. It has a scissors-like hinged design with ring handles and blades (non-cutting) that may be available in a range of sizes or designs. It may be intended for use at a specific anatomy. This is a reusable device intended to be sterilized prior to use.

A hand-held device designed specifically for trimming the nails of a patient. Also known as a nail cutter, it is a robust instrument comprised of two hinged cutting blades that are conjoined at the handle end of the device. The blades are sprung to hold them apart when not activated; when activated, the two blades are pressed together in a chopping motion to bite off (clip) the nail that has been positioned between them. It is not a pair of nail scissors. This is a reusable device.
