A relationship between heliogeophysical disturbances and exacerbations of cardiovascular disease was studied. The index of exacerbations of cardiovascular disease was a number of calls for ambulance in Yakutsk city to patients with hypertension, hypertension crisis, myocardial infarction, cerebral stroke. Statistical processing of the experimental data, using superposed epoch technique, has allowed defection of "pre-storm" (2-4 days before the maximum of geophysical disturbances) and "post-storm" (2-4 days after it) maxima in the dynamics of referring of patients with cardiovascular pathology for emergency care.
