Rated A+
Largest fluid compartment ANS Intracellular
Three categories of the extracellular compartment ANS 1. Interstitial
2. Transcellular
3. Intravascular
Fluid around the cells ANS Interstitial
Fluid in the blood ANS Intravascular
3rd Spacing ANS Transcellular
Decreased blood volume in vascular ANS Hypovolemia
Increased blood volume in vascular ANS Hypervolemia
Decreased fluid in the body as a whole ANS Dehydration
Organs that determine water distribution ANS 1. Skin
2. Kidneys
3. Lungs
4. GI
2 Forces that determine water distribution ANS 1. Osmotic pressure
2. Hydrostatic pressure
,Moves from higher to lower pressure; pushes out of capillaries into tissue/body cavity ANS
Hydrostatic Pressure
Factors that cause increased hydrostatic pressure ANS 1. Gravity/Standing
2. CHF
3. Late pregnancy
4. HTN
5. Wearing girdles and hose
Water moves towards higher solute ANS Osmotic pressure
Extra fluid in the interstitial space is picked up by the ___ and returned to the blood after being
filtered ANS Lymph nodes
kidneys are damaged, the protein albumin, normally found in the blood, will leak into the urine ANS
Nephrotic Syndrome
Plasma proteins lost in the tissue. Water follows the higher solute into the tissue, leading to massive
edema ANS Burns
When the blood becomes hypertonic, and draws fluid from the interstitial back into the vascular it
causes what to happen to the cells ANS Cellular dehydration
Cellular dehydration can lead to ___ ANS Shock
Triggered when increased solute concentration in the blood that is flowing through the hypothalamus
ANS Thirst
What part of the brain triggers thirst ANS Hypothalamus
, Increased serum osmolality ANS Hypertonic blood
Decreased serum osmolality ANS Hypotonic blood
Normal osmolality ANS 275-295
Serum osmolality of 300= ____ blood ANS Hypertonic
Serum osmolality of 215= ____ blood ANS Hypotonic
Also known as vasopressin ANS ADH (Anti-diuretic hormone)
What is the role of ADH? ANS Increase BP and constricts blood vessels
Where is ADH made ? ANS Hypothalamus
Where is ADH release from? ANS Posterior Pituitary
Where is ADH sent after its released? ANS Kidneys
Does ADH increase of decrease urine output? ANS Decreases
Where does the fluid that is blocked by ADH go? ANS Into the blood stream
T/F: ADH allows the glomeruli to reabsorb sodium ANS FALSE, it reabsorbs fluid NOT sodium
Two reasons ADH is released ANS 1. Increased concentration of blood
