Not an expert, so I am surprised that an EKG reading could say anything about a left atrium. Your data says normal sinus rhythm, so I conclude you atrium isn't exhibiting fibrillation or flutter.

The HR of 97 is a bit high if it is at rest..maybe you are one of those who gets excited in the doctor's office and has a high HR and BP, but only then.

I take it the surgery is not related to you heart, and was taken as a precautionary pre-admission test.   Was the EKG a simple three pick-up measurement, or was it the more extensive that uses at least 5 pick-ups on the chest area and a couple on one or both legs (I don't remember the exact count on pick-ups, but there is a lot more than three).
