1. A system comprising: an instrument comprising a body cavity aspirator, the instrument having a distal most edge that forms a first convex surface;a holster comprising a substantially longitudinal body defining an interior for receiving the instrument, with the body including a distal region having a closed end portion and a proximal region having an opening for receiving the instrument, wherein a longitudinal axis of the proximal region is at an angle relative to a longitudinal axis of the distal region;an instrument support in the distal region for supporting the instrument in a position above the closed end portion, wherein the instrument support comprises at least two opposing walls of the distal region pinched inwardly to form at least two ledges, and wherein the instrument support is configured to prevent the instrument from contacting the closed end portion regardless of the orientation of the instrument, wherein the instrument support is a second convex surface that forms a cavity in the closed end portion, wherein the first and second convex surfaces face one another such that the second convex surface opposes and contacts the first convex surface of the distal most edge of the instrument when the instrument is positioned inside the instrument support so as to suspend the distal most edge over the cavity and prevent the distal most edge from contacting the closed end portion;a pleat on a distal region of the body. 2. The system of claim 1 wherein the instrument support further comprises at least one support piece adhered to the interior of the distal region of the body and projecting upwardly from the closed end portion. 3. The system of claim 1 further comprising a fastener for removably attaching the holster to an object, wherein the proximal region of the body is removably attachable to the fastener. 4. The system of claim 3 wherein the proximal region of the body includes a lip that is slidable over an attachment piece on the fastener. 5. The system of claim 3 wherein the fastener comprises a clip. 6. The system of claim 3 wherein the fastener includes an arm having an opening for sliding over a bedrail or other object. 7. The system of claim 3 wherein the fastener includes at least one tie-strap for securing the fastener to an object. 8. The system of claim 3 wherein the fastener includes an adhesive surface for adhering the fastener to an object.
