β¦ Synopsis
We report on a survey of senior clinicians in 11 countries which asked about what they see as the main areas where in vivo chemical sensors will be most useful in medicine, and about what their operating characteristics should be. This information may help those designing such sensors to match available and new technologies to clinical needs.

The latest workshop of the European Community (EC) Concerted Action on 'Chemical sensors for in vivo monitoring' was held in Nauplion, Greece, in April this year. This fifth workshop focused on 'The design and development of new sensors for in vivo monitoring', and was organized into five sessions:
A miniature needle-type lactate sensor prepared by coupling the enzyme lactate oxidase (LCD) with an hydrogen peroxide probe has been developed which makes possible real-time in vivo lactate measurements. The sensor has a size of 0.35 mm o.d. with a cylindrical sensing cavity in which a multilayer d
