Left ventricular segmental kinetic disturbances (OR 3.01; 95% CI 1.65-4.61; p<0.001) and other clinical factors independently predicted postoperative atrial fibrillation after CABG.

May aid preoperative POAF risk stratification after CABG; extends observational predictors but requires prospective validation before practice change.

Advanced age, metabolic comorbidities, leukocytosis, and LV segmental kinetic disturbances are independent predictors of new-onset atrial fibrillation following first-time CABG.
Tadić et al. (2011) conducted a cohort in Postoperative atrial fibrillation (n=322). Clinical risk factors (e.g., left ventricular segmental kinetic disturbances) vs. Absence of risk factors was evaluated on Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) (OR 3.01, 95% CI 1.65-4.61, p=<0.001). Left ventricular segmental kinetic disturbances (OR 3.01; 95% CI 1.65-4.61; p<0.001) and other clinical factors independently predicted postoperative atrial fibrillation after CABG.
