Right atrial dilation has also been established as a marker of adverse outcomes in pulmonary hypertension (PH), while right atrial mechanics remain relatively understudied. Purpose Transthoracic echocardiography is a practical and widely used tool for risk stratification in PH. We hypothesized that right atrial (RA) strain components [RA reservoir function (ƐR), peak RA contraction (ƐCT) and RA conduit function (ƐCD)] correlates better with strong prognostic parameters as 3D right ventricle ejection fraction (3D RV EF), 6 minutes walking test, systolic pulmonary artery pressure (SPAP) and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP). Methods 19 patients with diagnostic PH, type 2 patients were excluded. RA strain was analyzed and determined a correlation with right ventricle function and pulmonary variables. Results Morphology correlation was poor with all the variables as SPAP, 6 Minutes walking test, BNP, only RA/LA index has a good correlation with BNP (R = 0.76, P = 0.0004). Right atrial mechanics with strain has good correlation: ƐR correlates with BNP (R= -0.70, P = 0.001) and with SPAP (R= -0.68, P = 0.001). ƐCD correlates with BNP (R=-0.75;P = 0,0002) and with SPAP (R=-0.68, P = 0.001). ƐCT has no correlation with E/e, 3D RV EF, SPAP, pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR), 6 minutes walking test neither BNP. Right atrial deformation sum correlations with 3D RV EF (R= -0.70, P = 0.001), with SPAP (R= -0.72, P = 0.0005), with PVR (R= -0.68, P = 0.001) and with BNP (R=-0.71, P = 0.001). Conclusion Right atrium morphological characteristics have poor correlation with variables that evaluate right ventricle function and with variables that predicts outcomes, as BNP, in this patients population. Only RA/LA index as morphology parameter has good correlation with BNP level. Meanwhile right atrial mechanics analyzed by strain has strong correlation with other variables of severity at PH. Right atrial deformation sum has better correlation than other strain parameters in our study. Abstract P634 Figure. RIGHT ATRIAL DEFORMATION SUM CORRELATION
