Abstract

A flexible surgical screw retainer and method for holding a surgical screw within a sterilizable package and dispensing the screw in a controlled manner at a selected site. The retainer has an elongated recess into which a surgical screw may be placed in order to be retained by frictional engagement with the side walls of the recess. The recess is sized to any of a variety of screw sizes. When the package is opened, the surgical screw retainer may be removed and grasped by a user and squeezed in order to disengage the screw from the recess and enable it to fall to a selected surface.
