Abstract

A suture package is provided comprising an outer sealed package and an inner sterile suture containing package. The inner suture containing package comprises pairs of heat sealed plastic sheets which form a series of pockets which are open at one end. Each of these pockets is adapted to contain a pre-reeled suture disposed within an envelope. Two rows of pockets are sealed together so as to be offset both laterally and vertically to provide a pair of rows of suture containing pockets which are offset with respect to each other for easy access. A portion of the suture within each envelope extends outwardly of the end of the envelope so that the suture may be grasped and withdrawn from the envelope.
