A device for sealing a patent foramen ovale (PFO) in the heart is provided. The device includes a left atrial anchor adapted to be placed in a left atrium of the heart, a right atrial anchor adapted to be placed in a right atrium of the heart, and an elongate member adapted to extend through the passageway and connect the left and right atrial anchors. The right atrial anchor preferably includes a plurality of arms and a cover attached to the arms. The left atrial anchor preferably also includes a plurality of arms and preferably-does not include-a-cover. Preferably, the elongate member has a first end fixedly connected to the left atrial anchor and a portion, proximal to the first end, passing through the right atrial anchor. Preferably, the elongate member is flexible.

A frequency selective differential amplifier (400) consistent with certain embodiments of the invention has a plurality of N amplifier stages (401, 402, 403 through 404) that collectively drive load (410). The plurality of N amplifier stages (401, 402, 403, . . . , 404) have input nodes and output nodes. A plurality of N−1 output phase shift circuits (421, 422, . . . , 423) connect the output nodes of the plurality of amplifier stages in a manner that causes output signals from the plurality of output nodes to add together for delivery to the load (410), the plurality of output phase shift circuits (421, 422, . . . , 423) have a plurality of phase shifts of &thgr;(f)={&thgr;(f)1,2; &thgr;(f)2,3; . . . ; &thgr;(f)N−2,N−1}. A plurality of N−1 input phase shift circuits (431, 432 through 433) are coupled to the plurality of input nodes and provide input signals thereto. The plurality of input phase shift circuits (431, 432, . . . , 433) have a plurality of phase shifts of &PHgr;(f)={&PHgr;(f)1,2; &PHgr;(f)2,3; . . . ; &PHgr;(f)N−2,N−1}. To achieve the frequency selectivity of the current invention, &thgr;(f) is not equal to &PHgr;(f), so that output signals from the plurality of N amplifier stages (401, 402, 403, . . . , 404) are added with a frequency dependent phase relationship.
