Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
1.CABG with and without LAA ligation will be compared for incidence of clinical stroke. <br/ ><br>2. CABG with and without LAA ligation will be compared for incidence of clinically detectable atrial fibrillation, ECG detected atrial fibrillation <br/ ><br>3.

CABG with and without LAA ligation will be compared for incidence of clinically detectable atrial fibrillation, ECG and Holter detected atrial fibrillation and total time duration of atrial fibrillation on Holter. <br/ ><br>2. CABG with and without LAA ligation will also be compared for incidence of stroke. <br/ ><br>3. All of the above comparison will be done at different time points of post-operative follow-up.Timepoint: 1 week, 1 month, 3 momths, 6 months, 12 months
