Abstract
A sterile, compact wrapping is provided to present components in order of use in a medical procedure, particularly a urethral catheterization procedure. Pockets are arranged in a line along a longitudinally extending midsection of the wrapping. Longitudinally extending flaps are provided along the edges of the midsection. Components are placed in the pockets in order of use, and the wrapping is rolled up, beginning with the pocket containing the last used component. The flaps are folded over the rolled up midsection. The rolled and folded wrapping, which maintains the components in a sterile condition until use, may be placed in a further package for shipping. In use, the flaps are unfolded and the wrapping is unrolled sufficiently to expose the first needed component. As the procedure continues, the wrapping is unrolled sufficiently to expose the next needed component, until all components have been used. The used components may be replaced in the pockets and the wrapping rerolled and refolded for disposal.
