A continuous side wall (122) extends upwardly from the base forming a basin (124) for retaining a coiled, flexible medical device. A retaining flange (128) is attached to the side wall and extends across at least a portion of the base to retain the free ends of the medical device in the basin. A guide arm (130) is attached to the side wall, and extends across at least a portion of the base so that the guide arm guides the coiled medical device onto the upper surface of the base as the medical device is inserted. The container may also have a plurality of ribs (132) to keep the coiled medical device from touching the base of the container.</p> |
