Stanton Needle Driver
John L. Stanton, MD, FACS
Allows a heavy cutting needle such as an OS-6 to be pushed through cancellous bone when re-attaching muscle or tendon
The groove captures the outer (convex) side of the needle and prevents the needle from spinning even when applying significant pressure. Useful for reattaching the rotator cuff in rotator cuff repairs, as well as in attaching suture anchors.

Accuracy Statement for devices with a measuring function: Devices with a measuring function are considered non-critical, non-calibrated, and are intended for reference-only measurements. While it provides a helpful visual guide for relative measurements, it is not calibrated to specific precision standards. Measurements taken with this device should not be considered accurate enough for critical applications requiring strict dimensional tolerances. General manufacturing tolerances of +\- 1% at each graduation, or 2% of the full scale apply, but no conformance qualifications are provided or implied.
