Abstract
A system and a method are provided for packaging components required for conducting a dialysis procedure. To this end, a rigid container is designed such that other necessary components required for conducting a dialysis procedure may be contained therein prior to use. The rigid container is designed with a lid having a port in the lid such that a drainage line may be connected to the port and the rigid container may be used as a drainage container. The rigid container is constructed from a rigid material such that rigid containers may be stacked during transport and storage of the same. The rigid container may also be re-used for subsequent dialysis procedures.
