A system for inserting components into a medical device includes a container and an attachment member. The attachment member is coupled to a sidewall having an opening and is configured to be coupled to a medical device. Utilizing the attachment member and opening, an insertable component may be inserted into a medical device within the container while limiting the risk of contamination to the interior of the container. Alternatively, a cutting knob and an alignment member mounted to a container may be used. Cutting knob and alignment member are coupled and a knife on cutting knob is rotated about alignment member to create an opening in the container to access the interior of the medical device. Another alternative includes sandwiching an insertable component between an attachable member and the medical device while the attachable member and medical device are contained within flexible packaging that may be torn away.

1. A system for insertion of insertable components into a medical device, the system comprising: (a) a container, wherein the container defines an interior; and(b) a medical device sealed within the interior of the container;(c) a electrical component wherein the electrical component comprises a portable power source or an ultrasonic transducer;wherein the exterior of the medical device and the interior of the container are sterile;wherein the medical device comprises an interior cavity, wherein the interior cavity is configured to receive the electrical component;wherein the container defines an opening configured to permit selective insertion of the electrical component into the interior cavity of the medical device while the medical device is within the container and without compromising the sterility of the exterior of the medical device; andwherein the medical device is removable from the container with the electrical component disposed in the cavity. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the container comprises a base and a plurality of sidewalls extending from the base, wherein the opening is defined in one of the sidewalls, the system further comprising: (a) a first cover detachably secured relative to the plurality of sidewalls;(b) an attachment member, wherein the attachment member is coupled to the sidewall defining the opening, wherein the attachment member defines an opening corresponding to the opening formed through the sidewall; and(c) a second cover detachably attached to an exterior surface of the sidewall defining the opening;wherein the opening of the sidewall and the opening of the attachment member are configured to permit the electrical component to be inserted therethrough and into the medical device. 3. The system of claim 2, wherein the attachment member comprises: (i) a cylindraceous portion having first end and a second end, wherein the cylindraceous portion is disposed through the opening of the sidewall,(ii) a rim extending outwardly from the first end of the cylindraceous portion, wherein the rim is configured to abut against the exterior surface of the sidewall defining the opening, and(iii) threading formed on an exterior portion of the second end of the cylindraceous portion. 4. The system of claim 3, wherein the medical device includes threading, wherein the threading of the cylindraceous portion is configured to complement the threading of the medical device. 5. The system of claim 2, wherein the sidewall defining the opening further comprises a retention feature protruding from the exterior surface of the sidewall, wherein the retention feature is configured to restrict movement of the attachment member relative to the sidewall defining the opening. 6. The system of claim 5, wherein the attachment member comprises a retention portion, an attachment portion, and a cylindraceous portion, wherein the retention portion is configured to couple with the retention feature. 7. The system of claim 6, wherein the medical device includes interior threading, wherein the attachment portion comprises exterior threading configured to complement the interior threading of the medical device, wherein the exterior threading of the attachment portion is formed on an exterior surface of the attachment portion. 8. The system of claim 7, wherein the attachment member is configured to deflect atleast part of the attachment portion inwardly when the retention portion is squeezed. 9. The system of claim 5, wherein the retention feature permits rotation of the attachment member relative to the sidewall defining the opening while restricting movement of the attachment member relative to the sidewall defining the opening along an axis defined by the attachment member. 10. A system for insertion of insertable components into a medical device, the system comprising: (a) a container defines an interior;(b) an ultrasonic surgical instrument sealed within the interior of the container; and(c) a ultrasonic transducer;wherein the exterior of the ultrasonic surgical instrument and the interior of the container are sterile;wherein the ultrasonic surgical instrument comprises an interior cavity, wherein the interior cavity is configured to receive the ultrasonic transducer;wherein the container defines an opening configured to permit selective insertion of the transducer into the interior cavity of the ultrasonic surgical instrument while the ultrasonic surgical instrument is within the container and without compromising the sterility of the exterior of the ultrasonic surgical instrument; andwherein the ultrasonic surgical instrument is removable from the container with the transducer disposed in the cavity. 11. A system for insertion of insertable components into a medical device, the system compromising: (a) a container, wherein the container defines an interior(b) a powered surgical instrument sealed within the interior of the container, wherein the powered surgical instrument includes an end effector having an active; and(c) a portable power source, wherein the powered surgical instrument is operable to drive the active element of the end effector using power from the portable power source;wherein the exterior of the powered surgical instrument and the interior of the container are sterile;wherein the powered surgical instrument comprises an interior cavity, wherein the interior cavity is configured to receive the portable power source;wherein the container defines an opening configured to permit selective insertion of the potable power device into the interior cavity of the powered surgical instrument while the powered surgical instrument is within the container and without compromising the sterility of the powered surgical instrument; andwherein the powered surgical instrument is removable from the container with the portable device disposed in the cavity.
