Abstract: An ergonomically correct suture needle holder is disclosed. The ergonomically correct suture needle holder comprises a thumb handle having a thumb spinning grip and a ring finger handle having a ring finger grip with a finger holder extending therewith. The ring finger handle and the thumb handle can be pivoted from an open position to a closed position. The needle holder is maintained in the closed position by engaging a first ratchet locking member protruding from the thumb handle with a second ratchet locking member protruding from the ring finger handle. The suture needle holder facilitates the user to twist the user's wrist without moving the user's hand thereof. The thumb spinning grip is custom sized to accommodate a user's thumb and facilitates a swiveling motion of the user's thumb while engaging in surgical movements for allowing the user to suture comfortably without changing the grip on the needle holder.
