<p>The invention is a container (30) for storage, dispensation, transport and disposal of a medical device (1) such a disposable ultrasonic surgical probe (1), that allows its dispensation for use, and for its safe storage and disposal after use, thereby protecting the user from tha hazards of needle pricks and possible contamination from small-diameter probes. The container of the present invention also provides a mechanism for restricting access to the probe (1) to prevent its reuse, and a method for its safe attachment to and detachment from an ultrasonic medical device. The container (30) comprises a cylindrical tube (32) having two ends and an inner surface defining a space for containing the probe. The probe is held within the cylindrical section (32) of the container (30) by a locking means (48) that allows a single dispensation and enables disposal after use in an inaccessible manner to enable probe attachmen and detachment to the non-disposable segment of the device.</p> |
