Your going to hate this answer

Until it is dull or bent, broken burred.

Now with that said...

If I get any sewing change 
thread breaks 
shredding
poor stitch quality
ect...

I change the needle

If I have a need for a thin or thick needle

I change the needle ( I never reuse a needle )

once it is out it is out.

I do keep a needle log with date & stitch count 
it shows that I get from 100,000 to 1,500,000 
stitches out of a needle BP more then sharps.

BUT I change as needed and that is my only 
rule.

If there is an issue the needle gets changed.
it is the least expensive part of our machines and 
the one with the most ware.

TAKE NOTE I ONLY GO THROUGH ABOUT 30 NEEDLES A YEAR
Unless I am doing the annual maintenance 
When I change them all.

I know this does not tell you much.. Sorry
