Abstract

The purpose of research – conducting spirographic research in boys, Yakuts – representatives of urbanized ethnic group to determine the regional age-specific norm of basic parameters of external respiration. Methods: computer spirography. Results: the actual values of volume-time parameters of external respiration in young men – Yakuts correspond to the lower boundary of the age norms, designed for residents of middle latitudes. The obtained values of the parameters of external respiration are appropriate to the level of physical development of the modern urbanized ethnic groups and can serve as a regional age norm.

Key words
