Resumo: Episodes of Cold Waves (OdF), in the municipality of Ituiutaba, have consequences and impacts on patient care, in the municipal health system. This process of climatic variability in cities with tropical climates are events considered extreme, in this climatic scope, since in this region there is a well-defined seasonality between the winter and summer seasons. Health is understood, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), as a state of complete physical, psychological and social well-being and not merely the absence of illness. In this sense, it is understood that individuals who present a state of health in which these conditions are in harmony, are able to adapt to environmental oscillations in a satisfactory manner. However, due to the individual factors of each organism, the elderly population, which has a predisposition to certain diseases, have greater difficulty in adapting to these changes. Also according to the WHO, the aging of the population is a worldwide phenomenon and predicts that in 2025 there will be 1.2 billion elderly people. Given this scenario, this study aims to show the correlation between the OdF event and the effects on the population's health, following parameters based on data from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), World Health Organization (WHO) and Institute of Meteorology do Brasil (INMET) and health data obtained at the Emergency Care Unit of the Municipality of Ituiutaba (UPAMI). As a result of this study, we realized that the effects of these extreme climate events are a warning sign, to guide both the public health service and guide the population, aiming at disease prevention and health promotion.
