1. System for monitoring the concentration of analytes in body fluids, in particular in interstitial fluid, comprising a) a catheter having an implantable region and an outlet opening for the withdrawal of fluid, in particular body fluid, b) a first and a second analytical zone which, after contact with the withdrawn fluid, undergo a detectable change when an analyte is present in the fluid, c) a device for contacting the first analytical zone with fluid from the catheter and for subsequently contacting the second analytical zone with fluid from the catheter, d) an analytical device to analyse the changes on the analytical zones caused by the analyte-containing fluid in order to determine the concentration of an analyte to be monitored.
