Abstract

A medical device holder is comprised of a flexible elongated sheet member, and includes a holding portion configured to hold a three-dimensionally configured part connected of the device. The holding portion is configured to bend back on itself to cover the three-dimensionally configured part. A slit is provided in the sheet member to allow insertion of the distal end portion of the holding portion so that the state in which the holding portion covers the three-dimensionally configured part connected can be maintained. The distal end portion of the holding portion is folded toward the opposite direction from the direction to pull out when retrieving the catheter from the sheet member.
