LA reservoir strain was independently associated with ischaemic stroke in CABG patients. The predictive value of LA reservoir strain was unaffected by the presence of POAF. Prospective studies are warranted to validate the potential usefulness of LA reservoir strain to predict postoperative ischaemic stroke in the setting of CABG.
