ABSTRACT:
An improved medical device container and method of manufacture thereof, wherein the container is adapted to be opened manually and dispense the contents onto a sterile field without the need of manual contact. The container is a thermally formed blister package and features a tray having at least one depression which is sized and shaped to receive a sterile medical appliance, and a pliable backing sheet having at least one flexible insert affixed thereto. The backing sheet is bonded to the periphery of the tray, and the insert engages the medical device and urges it into firm contact with a portion of the depression to secure the device therein. The backing sheet is adapted to be manually peeled away from the tray and thereby pull the flexible insert out of the depression so that the medical device may fall freely onto a sterile location without the need for manual contact.
