I want to add that when stretching the thread with the needle you can not grab the needle itself with the needle holder. Because, when we pull, the needle can touch nearby tissues. It is necessary to grasp the thread in place of attaching to the needle. Then the needle will sag and will not touch the nearby tissues
I think in intracorporal suturing we must be grab thread at 2 cm of needle hub. In situations that the suture is very shorted, we can take the needle with needle holder with very caution.
