Abstract

Introduction. In recent years, the influence of climatic factors on population health has become particularly relevant. With significant fluctuations in meteorological conditions, there is an overstrain and failure of the adaptation. This leads to disorders of the functioning of the cardiovascular and central nervous systems. The purpose of the study is to assess the relationship of the population’s medical care with climatic factors, based on the available databases of indicators of Earth and space weather and data on the frequency of the population’s medical care.

Material and Methods. For the analysis, we used a database of the population’s access to medical care and variations of climatic factors from 19.12.2005 to 31.12.2009 in the Kalininsky district of St. Petersburg. The total number of environmental parameters included in the study was 237, and the number of requests for medical care was 2.444.

Results. In this paper, we tested a model for assessing the relationship between the population’s access to medical care and Earth and space weather factors. Gender and seasonal analysis were carried out. Time dependencies were studied. The obtained data allowed us to form a list of climate indicators that affect the health of the population.

Conclusion. The most significant climatic indicators associated with coronary heart disease were identified. The most dangerous season of the year is autumn. Women have a higher sensitivity to changes in Earth and space weather than men. Accounting for variations in space weather allows predicting changes in medical treatment requests in 2-5 days, accounting for variations in the Earth’s weather – in 1 day.
