Abstract
A protective sleeve for an ampoule having an elastic sidewall, a proximal end and a distal end is disclosed. The elastic sidewall has an inner surface and an outer surface. The inner surface defines a chamber adapted for receiving the ampoule. The proximal end has an opening through which the ampoule can be accessed. The distal end is at least partially closed for retaining the ampoule within the chamber.
