A tray (100) for accommodating a coiled medical device, such as a catheter assembly (700), includes a first compartment (101), a second compartment (102), and a third compartment (103). The catheter assembly (700) and devices associated with a catheterization procedure, such as syringes (701,702) containing sterile water and lubricating jelly and a specimen container (703) can be disposed within the tray. A first barrier (105) and second barrier (106) separate the compartments. The barriers can have openings (121,122) therein to accommodate large syringes or to enable the first compartment (101) to be used as a lubricant applicator for the catheter. The first compartment (101) can include a stair-stepped contour (115) such that the syringes are held at different depths to facilitate ease of use. The various devices can be disposed within the tray (100) in accordance with their order of use in the catheterization procedure.

1. A method of manufacturing a packaged catheter assembly, comprising: providing a tray having at least a first compartment with a first compartment base member having an inclined, stair-step contour and a second compartment, wherein the first compartment and the second compartment are separated by a first barrier having an opening therein;disposing at least one syringe in the first compartment;disposing a catheter assembly in the second compartment;sealing the tray;enclosing printed instructions directing a user to discharge contents of the at least one syringe into the first compartment and to pass at least a portion of the catheter assembly through the opening and into the contents; andplacing a sterile wrap about the tray. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the tray further comprises a third compartment separated from the second compartment by a second barrier having a second opening therein, further comprising: disposing at least one of a specimen container or a skin cleanser in the third compartment. 3. The method of claim 2, further comprising disposing at least another syringe in one of the first compartment or within both the opening and the second opening. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the tray comprises a contoured surface having at least three compartments separated by barriers and a perimeter wall. 5. The method of claim 2, wherein a first opening depth of the first opening is less than a second opening depth of the second opening. 6. The method of claim 2, wherein the second compartment comprises a second compartment base member and the third compartment comprises a third compartment base member, wherein the second compartment base member and the third compartment base member are substantially coplanar. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the first compartment base member comprises a first step portion and a second step portion, wherein the first step portion is disposed farther from the first barrier than the second step portion. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein the second step portion is disposed at a greater depth within the tray than the first step portion. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the second compartment comprises a second compartment base member, wherein the first step portion and the second step portion are disposed in a non-parallel orientation relative to the second compartment base member. 10. The method of claim 8, wherein each of the first step portion and the second step portion define a recess for accommodating a syringe flange. 11. The method of claim 2, wherein a first opening width of the first opening is less than a second opening width of the second opening. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein the first opening is bounded by a first opening base member and two inclined first opening side members. 13. The method of claim 2, wherein the second opening is bounded by a opening base member, an inclined opening side member, and the perimeter wall. 14. The method of claim 2, wherein the second compartment comprises a second compartment base member, wherein each of the first compartment, the second compartment, and the third compartment are open along a side of the tray opposite the second base member. 15. The method of claim 1, wherein the second compartment comprises a second compartment base member, wherein first compartment base member is configured to support the at least one syringe at a shallower depth within the tray than a depth of the second compartment base member, and in a non-parallel configuration with the second compartment base member. 16. The method of claim 14, wherein the at least one syringe comprises a plurality of syringes, wherein the first compartment base member is configured to support each of the plurality of syringes at different depths within the tray relative to the depth of the second compartment base member. 17. A method of manufacturing a packaged catheter assembly, comprising: providing a tray having at least a first compartment with a first compartment base member having an inclined, stair-step contour and a second compartment, wherein the first compartment and the second compartment are separated by a first barrier having an opening therein, and a third compartment;disposing at least one syringe in the first compartment;disposing a catheter assembly in the second compartment;disposing a skin cleanser in the third compartment;sealing the tray;enclosing printed instructions directing a user to discharge contents of the at least one syringe into the first compartment and to pass at least a portion of the catheter assembly through the opening and into the contents; andplacing a sterile wrap about the tray. 18. The method of claim 17, further comprising disposing at least another syringe in the tray. 19. A method of manufacturing a packaged catheter assembly, comprising: providing a tray having at least a first compartment with a first compartment base member having an inclined, stair-step contour and a second compartment, wherein the first compartment and the second compartment are separated by a first barrier having an opening therein, and a third compartment;disposing at least one syringe in the first compartment;disposing a catheter assembly in the second compartment;disposing another syringe in the tray;sealing the tray;enclosing printed instructions directing a user to discharge contents of the at least one syringe into the first compartment and to pass at least a portion of the catheter assembly into the contents; andplacing a sterile wrap about the tray. 20. The method of claim 19, wherein the second compartment comprises a second compartment base member, wherein the disposing another syringe comprises disposing the another syringe within both the opening and a second opening. 21. A method of manufacturing a packaged catheter assembly, comprising: providing a tray having at least a first and a second compartment separated by a first barrier having an opening therein;disposing at least one syringe in the tray;sealing the tray; andenclosing with the tray printed instructions directing a user to discharge contents of the at least one syringe into the first compartment and to pass at least a portion of the catheter assembly into the contents. 22. A tray configured to accommodate a catheter assembly and medical devices corresponding to catheter use, the tray comprising: a contoured surface defining at least three compartments separated by barriers and a perimeter wall, the at least three compartments comprising: a first compartment comprising a first compartment base member having at least one inclined stair-stepped contour defining a ramp upon which syringes may be placed so that a plunger of each syringe is predisposed to project upward and out of the tray;a second compartment comprising a second base member; a first barrier separating the first compartment from the second compartment, wherein the first barrier defines a first opening between the first compartment and the second compartment, the first opening having a first opening depth;a third compartment comprising a third base member; anda second barrier separating the second compartment from the third compartment, wherein the second barrier defines a second opening between the second compartment and the third compartment, the second opening having a second opening depth. 23. The tray of claim 22, wherein the first opening depth and the second opening depth are different. 24. The tray of claim 23, wherein the first opening depth is less than the second opening depth. 25.
