A bandage type sensor arrangement wherein the sensor includes two parts movable with respect to each other, a carrier assembly is connected to the sensor parts for maintaining the sensor parts in place prior to use, and that is readily detachable for releasing the sensor parts while providing a connection of the sensor parts to a surface to be monitored. In one embodiment, a microcode synonym is created for execution on two or more execution units of differing types. The holding section is separated into two halves which pivot about the base section to hold surrounding siding to the base section once it has been attached to a wall substrate. In other embodiments, access to the patient’s heart may be obtained through a trocar sheath or other means for providing percutaneous access to the patient’s thoracic cavity without opening the chest wall. The methods described herein can be performed on bundles of hollow polymer fibers, including bundles of hollow polymer fibers mounted in a module. In addition, the present invention is set such that the rotary center point P of the rotary die 2 is set outside the line 10 drawn from one end C1 of the linear line indicating the contact surface 9 of the rotary die 2 in a direction of right angle in respect to the linear line when the contact surface 9 is seen in a section of a direction perpendicular to the axis of the rotary die 2.
