ABSTRACT:
A packaging device for storing, dispensing and collecting a plurality of blood collection units. The packaging device includes a rectangularly shaped container, a first opening for dispensing unused blood collection units and a second opening for receiving the blood collection units after use. The device includes a slidable tape positioned on the upper surface of the container which is in the form of a continuous band mounted on the container. The unused blood collection units are attached to the slidable tape within the container and movement of the slidable tape with respect to the container advances the unused blood collection units into the first opening so that they are then removed from the slidable tape. A bag being initially folded and disposed within the portion of the container for holding the unused blood collection units, the ends of the bag having an open end attached to the container in alignment with a second opening for receiving and holding used blood collection units. Used blood collection units are inserted into the second opening through a door and into the bag, which segregates the used and unused blood collection units in order to prevent contamination of the units to be dispensed. Advancing the unused blood collection units by the slidable tape simultaneously advances all of the unused blood collection, units to thereby provide space for insertion of a used blood collection unit through the second opening and into the bag.
