Portuguese term
fita cólica
Portuguese to English
Medical
Medical (general)
From a medical exam (from Portugal).. just not sure of the translation for the "fita" here..
"Abd - mole, depressível, palpação indolor, sem fita cólica na FIE"
(FIE is the Left Iliac Fossa [LIF])
Another example of the term I found online is:
No exame do abdómen é importante pesquisar pontos doloroso na zona lombar ou hipogastro, procurar massa renal ou vesical, fita cólica (sinal indireto de obstipação).

: I don't see how you arrive at 'records', and you haven't given any references.

Fita = a recording/reading method.

colic/colonic tape
The context provided mentions "obstipação", which is defined in Portuguese as: "... uma dificuldade em regular a progressão das fezes ou a incapacidade total em evacuar. Na presença deste quadro, as fezes ficam mais duras e secas. O seu grau varia de pessoa para pessoa, podendo durar pouco tempo ou ser crónica, causando dor, desconforto e afetando a qualidade de vida." https://www.cuf.pt/saude-a-z/obstipacao
From my understanding, after researching three sources, obstipation may create a fecal tape literally, and that's my interpretation of "fita cólica".
In this document that I'm referencing below, you will find a picture of the so-called "fita cólica".
NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART: Please be warned that the image is graphic and looks gross. Also, you will need to download the PDF since it's not viewable on the browser.
Look for Figura 1: "Apresentação atípica de necrose isquémica do cólon com avulsão de fi ta cólica pelo ânus (100 cm) no 16º dia pós-operatório de correcção laparotómica de aneurisma aorta abdominal."

This article in English talks about a 70-year-old patient who was diagnosed with colorectal cancer. Besides a tumor in the right colon, she presented "with constipation, changes in bowel habits and fecal bleeding. The article mentions "colonic tape" in this segment:
"A cross-section of the peripheral truncation was performed on the colonic tape at the point where the ileocolonic anastomosis would be later created. "
This section describes a colonoscopy that was performed on the patient. Please note the use of "colic tape".
"A hole was then applied to the colic tape at the lower third of the sigmoid (Fig. (Fig.2).2). Again, a 10 mm laparoscopic port was inserted and the laparoscopic camera was used to inspect the bowel lumen up to the splenic flexure. After the endoscopic inspection of the bowel has been completed, the laparoscopic ports were withdrawn (Fig. (Fig.3).3). The holes were converged with seromuscular stitches of the sigmoid and omentumplasty. A stapled side to side anastomosis was hen performed between terminal ileum and colon."

This is the best I could come up with. Not many sources are available on the topic of colic/colonic tape.

Discussion
I don't believe it's anything to do with tape or recording.
However, I must agree with Oliver that "cólica" may well be the feminine of the adjective "cólico" or "colônico", that is, it may refer to the colon.
