Abstract

The physiological features of cardiovascular and respiratory systems among immigrants of Far North are analyzed. It is established that changes in cardiovascular and respiratory systems of Far North immigrants are caused by starting of adaptation mechanisms on exposure of extremal ecological factors. With increasing the living period in Far North conditions, the redistribution of static lung volumes and the development of hypertrophy of left ventricle are observed among Far North immigrants.
