Abstract
A kit for the packaging and shipping of components of an explanted medical device. The kit includes sealable containers to individually package the components of the explanted medical device. The kit also includes dressing presoaked in a preservation fluid, the dressing being provided in at least one sealed container prior to the removal of the explanted medical device to maintain the dressing a presoaked, sterile condition. The amount of preservation fluid applied to the dressing is controlled, thereby eliminating the need for a reservoir of fluid to be provided.
