Abstract: An atrial defibrillator (30) reliably detects a depolarization activation wave of the heart and delivers cardioverting electrical energy to the atria of the heart in synchronism with a detected depolarization activation wave. The atrial defibrillator includes a first sensor (53,52) for producing a first electrical output having a duration substantially equal to the duration of the depolarization activation wave sensed between a first pair of spaced apart locations (38a,40a) of the heart. The atrial defibrillator further includes a second sensor for producing a second electrical output having a duration substantially equal to the duration of the depolarization activation wave sensed between a second pair of spaced apart locations of the heart. The spacing between the second pair of locations is greater than the spacing between the first pair of locations. A microprocessor (60) is responsive to the first and second electrical outputs for providing an indication signal indicating the occurrence of the depolarization activation wave when the second electrical output is longer in duration than the first electrical output. A pulse generator (66) coupled to the microprocessor applies electrical cardioverting energy to the atria of the heart in response to the indication signal. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Disclosed are devices and methods for the clinical analysis of a sperm sample. The devices comprise a solid substrate, typically on the order of a few millimeters thick and approximately 0.2 to 2.0 centimeters square, microfabricated to define a sample inlet port (16A) and a mesoscale flow channel (20, 40) extending from the inlet port (16A). In one embodiment, a sperm sample is applied to the inlet port (16A), and the competitive migration of the sperm sample through the mesoscale flow channel (20, 40) is detected to serve as an indicator of sperm motility. In another embodiment, the substrate of the device is microfabricated with a sperm inlet port (16A), an egg nesting chamber (16B), and an elongate mesoscale flow channel (20, 40) communicating between the egg nesting chamber (16B) and the inlet port (16A). In this embodiment, a sperm sample is applied to the inlet port, and the sperm in the sample is permitted to competitively migrate from the inlet port (16A) through the channel (20, 40) to the egg nesting chamber (16B), where in vitro fertilization occurs. The devices of the invention may be used in a wide range of applications in the analysis of a sperm sample, including the analysis of sperm morphology or motility, to assess sperm binding properties, and for in vitro fertilization.
