This work is in collaboration with climate and human health studies, emphasizing the diseases with circulatory origins In this perspective, this paper analyzes the influence of climatic variables in mortality from circulatory diseases in the Federal District from 2003 to 2012. The methodology used was to literature, exploratory and quantitative approach, in which were surveyed in articles, scientific journals, periodicals, dissertations, theses, books and official sites, enabling better guidance of the subject in question. The climatological data rainfall, air pressure, temperature and relative humidity collected from the National Institute of Meteorology and thereafter correlated using Pearson's correlation method with the death records from circulatory diseases provided by database of the State Department of Health of the Federal District and the Department of SUS IT / DATASUS. It was found that the oscillations of the climate variables temperature and relative humidity (lower mean values) and atmospheric pressure (higher mean values) there was an increase in the death records by circulatory diseases. Thus, it was concluded that the conditions of the physical linked to climate environment can contribute to many morbidities and mortalities, but it is noteworthy that other factors may also contribute to the increase in admissions and deathssocioeconomic conditions (housing, food, exposure to air pollutants)allies with preexisting fixed factors.
