Abstract
Disclosed is a catheter package and delivery system which is directed to the problem of the catheter, or any position of it, inadvertently tumbling out on withdrawal from its package for use and accidentally contacting a nonsterile surface. The catheter is packaged in a coiled manner such that the distal tip is removable through a first hole in the package and the catheter may then be uncoiled and ultimately removed through a second hole in the package as the catheter is threaded through a needle for introduction into the patient.
