Tube securement tape
The disclosed securement tape strip comprises a tape having a midsection, a stabilizing section, and a wrapping strip. The tape strip has an adhesive along the midsection to adhere the tape strip to a substrate. The wrapping strip can include an adhesive for wrapping the wrapping strip around a device to hold the device securely in place on the substrate. The tape strip can include a perforation set along the midsection. The perforation set can be useful in removal of the tape.
1 . A tape strip comprising:
a body layer, comprising:
a midsection;
a first stabilizing section extending in a first direction from the midsection; and
a second stabilizing section extending in a second direction from the midsection;
a perforation set defined in the body layer, wherein the perforation set extends along an axis;
a wrapping strip extending from the body layer, the wrapping strip including:
a first edge extending from the body layer at a first origin point on a first side of the axis;
a second edge extending transversely from the first edge;
a third edge extending from the body layer at a second origin point on a second side of the axis; and
an arcuate edge extending between and connecting the second and third edges; and
an adhesive disposed on the body layer to adhere the body layer to a substrate;
wherein the wrapping strip is foldable across the axis to wrap about at least a portion of a perimeter of a device.
2 . The tape strip of claim 1 , wherein the adhesive disposed on the body layer is a continuous pattern coating.
3 . The tape strip of claim 1 , wherein the adhesive is a first adhesive, and wherein the tape strip further comprises a second adhesive disposed on the wrapping strip to adhere the wrapping strip to the device.
4 . The tape strip of claim 1 , further comprising a cover dressing.
5 . The tape strip of claim 1 , wherein the first edge extends across the axis.
6 . A method of securing a device to a substrate, wherein the method comprises:
adhering the tape strip of claim 1 to the substrate with the adhesive;
positioning at least a portion of the device on the body layer; and
wrapping the wrapping strip around at least a portion of the perimeter of the device.
7 . The method of claim 6 , further comprising:
applying a cover dressing over at least a portion of the tape strip, the cover dressing comprising:
a first major surface, a second major surface opposite the first major surface defined by a perimeter around a body layer, wherein an adhesive is disposed on the second major surface, the second major surface overlying the substrate.
8 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the adhesive is a first adhesive, and wherein the method further comprises adhering the wrapping strip to the device with a second adhesive disposed on the wrapping strip.
9 . The tape strip of claim 1 ,
wherein the wrapping strip comprises:
an adhesive; and
a release liner removably covering the adhesive on the wrapping strip.
10 . A tape strip comprising:
a body layer;
a perforation set defined in the body layer, wherein the perforation set extends along an axis;
an adhesive to adhere the body layer to a substrate; and
a wrapping strip extending from the body layer, wherein the wrapping strip is foldable laterally across the axis to wrap about at least a portion of a perimeter of a device, wherein the wrapping strip includes;
a first edge extending from the body layer at a first origin point on a first side of the axis;
a second edge extending transversely from the first edge;
a third edge extending from the body layer at a second origin point on a second side of the axis; and
an arcuate edge extending and connecting the second and third edges.
11 . The tape strip of claim 10 , wherein the adhesive is a first adhesive, and wherein the tape strip further comprises a second adhesive disposed on the wrapping strip to adhere the wrapping strip to the device.
12 . The tape strip of claim 10 , wherein the first edge extends across the axis.
