ABSTRACT:
A needle holder is disclosed which includes a base member having a centrally located U-shaped cut defining a tongue-shaped member and fold lines perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the package and extending from the U-shaped cut to the longitudinal edges. A fold line in the tongue-shaped member parallel to the aforementioned fold lines serves to divide the tongue-shaped member into distal and fixed portions. A retainer for the needles is attached to the distal portion of the tongue-shaped member and a cover member is secured to one end of the base member, with its opposite end free. The described structure allows the needle package to be opened by bending the package along the pair of fold lines whereby the distal end of the tongue-shaped member is raised and slides between the base member and the cover member to lift the needles carried thereon to a position where the needles will protrude beyond the cover.
