Suturing unit, reusable

A reusable suturing unit is a hand-held, non-powered surgical instrument designed to assist in passing sutures or needle-suture assemblies through tissue or prosthetic material during endoscopic or open procedures. It helps surgeons place, manipulate, knot, tighten, or cut sutures and typically features a shaft with grasping mechanisms at the tip and a handle for manual control.

As a reusable device, it is intended for multiple uses after proper cleaning, disinfection, and sterilization in accordance with manufacturer instructions. Regulatory oversight focuses on its reusable nature, mechanical function, and intended use in suturing, without incorporating powered components or drug delivery.
