A medical instrument holder, also referred to as a packaging clip, for supporting disposable medical instruments for cardiology and cardiovascular procedures. The medical instrument holder is a one-piece polymer molded member, including a frictionally engaged tube, in the holder for supporting a guidewire. The holder also includes at least one slot for a medical instrument in the form of a partial circle to prevent axial movement, and preferably two slots for frictionally engaging a dilator and a hemostasis valve introducer, or a needle and a tear-away sheath/dilator assembly. The holder can also include at least one hole for receiving a medical instrument. The one-piece molded member, including the frictionally engaged guidewire tube, provides for disposable packaging in a Tyvek/Mylar pouch which lends itself conveniently to ETO sterilization. The holder, along with its instruments, is compact and minimal in length because the guidewire is looped about itself. The holder is ergonomically designed with an individual's dexterity in mind for convenient handling of the disposable medical instruments supported in the holder.
