ABSTRACT:
In accordance with the present invention there is provided an apparatus for permitting an individual to unsheath and resheath the needles of hypodermic syringes, catheters, etc., with the use of only one hand. Consequently, the present invention permits free use of the individual's other hand when such is required, e.g., when restraint of the patient is necessary in order to properly and safely administer an injection from a hypodermic needle or the like. The apparatus securely holds and positions a medical needle sheath during such times that a medical needle is removed from and reinserted into the sheath.
