The climate can influence the non-appearance of environments conducive to the proliferation of vectors of respiratory diseases, in addition to influencing diseases and conditions related to climatic phenomena. In addition, the objective of this study was to verify the spatio-temporal dynamics between the occurrence of atmospheric conditions and the manifestations of respiratory conditions outside the Amazon and southwestern Pará. The period from 2008 to 2020 was adopted for the municipalities of Belterra and Monte Alegre (Baixo Amazonas) and Itaituba (Southwest). Use of meteorological data, made available on the digital platform of the National Institute of Meteorology (INMET) and respiratory education data through the Department of Informatics of the Unified Health System (DATASUS). Data were collected from adult, young and infant patients (sample only). Model of Multiple Linear Regression or Regression using principal component analysis (PCA), aiming to validate a possible association between the manifestations of respiratory conditions and different meteorological conditions, with the analyzes being carried out without free statistical software R. Note that there is a linearly significant correlation (p <0.05) between the least humid period in cases of respiratory diseases in Belterra and Monte Alegre. In Monte Alegre it was possible to show a significant correlation between cool and less cool. In Itaituba, no correlation was observed between seasons and respiratory conditions. Finally, in Belterra, Itaituba and Monte Alegre, the number of hospitalizations for respiratory doses seems to increase, not the transition period, specifically the period from June to August. Keywords: climate, health, rainfall
