Packages for medical devices and medical device assemblies

A catheter assembly () comprising: a hydrophilic urinary catheter () having a catheter shaft including a proximal insertion end portion () and a distal end portion () having a drainage member (), a collapsible sleeve () defining a compartment () that contains a portion of the catheter shaft, a distal end portion () of the sleeve () being attached to the distal end portion () of the urinary catheter (); an amount of liquid () located within the compartment (); an introducer () located at a proximal end portion () of the sleeve (), the introducer () including a passageway therethrough and a proximal opening for passage of the catheter shaft therethrough; and a removable cap () covering the introducer () wherein the cap () includes an anti-leak element.

A package () for containing a medical device () including a front sheet () and a back sheet () wherein each includes a top edge (), a bottom edge () and opposed first () and second side edges (), the sheets being sealed to each other by a peelable peripheral seal (), having a top seal zone (), bottom seal zone (), and opposed first () and second side seal zones (), the sheets being separated to open the package by at least partially peeling the sheets apart along the first and second side seal zones; a first peel-stop () located in the first side seal zone and a second peel-stop () located in the second side seal zone of the peripheral seal, wherein the first and second peel-stops limit peeling of the first and second side seal zones of the peripheral seal.

A catheter and package combination including a package having opposed front and rear panels that are sealed together to define a sealed interior cavity. The package also has top and bottom edges and opposed side edges. The cavity has a first height extending in a direction between the top and bottom edges. The front and rear panels are configured to tear adjacent to one of the side edges in the direction between the top and bottom edges to form an opening in communication with the cavity wherein the opening has a second height in the direction between the top and bottom edges that is smaller than the first height of the cavity. A urinary catheter in a compact configuration is disposed within the cavity.
