What is capillary hydrostatic pressure? - Answer-(blood
pressure) facilitates the outward movement of water from the
capillary to the interstitial space
What is capillary oncotic pressure? - Answer-Water pulling
attracts water from the interstitial space back into the capillary
osmotically
What is interstitial hydrostatic pressure? - Answer-Water
pushing.
facilitates the inward movement of water from the interstitial
space into the capillary
What is interstitial oncotic pressure? - Answer-water pulling
,attracts water from the capillary into the interstitial space
osmotically.
What is Starlings hypothesis? - Answer-Net filtration = forces
favoring filtration - forces opposing filtration
What is the major force of filtration and reabosoprtion? -
Answer-capillary pressures
What happens at the arteriole end of the capillary in terms of
fluid forces? - Answer-hydrostatic pressure > interstitial oncotic
pressure = water into the insterstitial space
FILTRATION
,What happens at the venous end of a capillary in terms of fluid
forces? - Answer-capillary oncotic pressure > interstitial
hydrostatic pressure = fluid back into ciruclation
REABSORPTION
What is the pathophysiology of edema? - Answer-increased in
forces favoring fluid filtration from the capillaries or lymphatic
channels into the tissues
What is the primary ECF cation? - Answer-Sodium
What is the primary ECF anion? - Answer-Chloride
Describe the relationship btw. Chloride and sodium and
bicarbonate - Answer-Cl follow sodium and varies inversely
with bicarb.
What hormone regulates sodium? where is it synthesized? -
Answer-Aldosterone. Synthesized in the adrenal cortex.
, When is aldosterone secreted? - Answer-Decreased renal
perfusion, low NA levels, high K levels.
What are the effects of aldosterone secretion? - Answer-Acts
on the distule tubule of the kidney to reabsorb sodium and
water and excrete K and H+ into urine.
What happens to the percentage of body water through the
lifespan? - Answer-Newborns; 75-90%
Childhood; 60-65%
Adults; 60%
Older adults; declines with age
Why do older adults experience a decrease in body percentage
of water? - Answer-- increased adipose tissue
- decreased muscle mass
- renal decline
- diminished thirst
What is the definition of osmotic force? - Answer-Amt. of
hydrostatic pressure required to oppose the osmotic
movement of water.
