ADAPTIVE CAPACITY OF STUDENTS’ CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM

Data about adaptive capacity of cardiovascular system of 106 students were analyzed. Using the method of R.M. Bayevskiy, current adaptive capacity of students’ organisms was estimated. The number of students with stress adaptation mechanisms significantly increased with their age (from 17 to 23 years). In our opinion, this could be explained by negative impact of urbanization, significant learning overload and lack of physical activity among the students. Dependence of the adaptive capacity from students’ sex was much larger at 5th year of education: the number of female students with stress adaptation mechanisms was significantly lesser than the number of male students (females -66%, males - 81%).
