Adhesive tape strip
First Claim
1. An adhesive tape strip having a side with adhesive which is substantially concealed and a means for applying said tape strip while exposing said adhesive without touching said adhesive, said adhesive tape strip comprising:
- a tape strip having a first side and a second side, wherein said first tape strip side has an adhesive layer which is substantially concealed and has a removable protective film with a first end and a second end; and
remote adhesive exposure means for remotely exposing said adhesive layer from a position remote from said adhesive layer while simultaneously applying said adhesive layer to a contact surface, wherein said remote adhesive exposure means includes a blind side pull tab which is movably disposed generally adjacent to and longitudinally along said second tape strip side and is attached to said first protective film end;
wherein movement of said blind side pull tab along said tape strip toward said second protective film end causes removal of said protective film from said adhesive layer.

Abstract
An adjustable sensor retainer and method for adjustably securing and retaining a sensor (e.g. a piezoelectric pulse sensor) against a skin region of a person includes the use of a primary retainer tape and an adjustable secondary retainer tape. The primary retainer tape is an adhesive tape to which the sensor can be attached. The adhesive primary retainer tape has strips of protective film with blind pull tabs attached thereto. This allows simplified one-handed application of the primary retainer tape while initially positioning and holding the sensor in place with the other hand. The secondary retainer tape is a tape strip removably attached to the top of the primary retainer tape and disposed over the sensor. After the initial positioning of the sensor with the primary retainer tape, the sensor can be finally positioned and the secondary retainer tape re-attached to the top of the primary retainer tape, thereby securing the sensor in the final desired location. Further, the secondary retainer tape can easily be detached and re-attached to slightly reposition the sensor, as desired.
