50-60% of body weight

Water

Within the cells

intracellular

Outside the cells

extracellular

have higher proportion of body water

infant

2, 500 ml/day (1 500-3000 ml/day)

Average fluid loss amounts

2 500 mL/day

counterbalancing the input to maintain equilibrium.

Medium or milieu for metabolic processes


Body temperature regulation


Lubricant of musculoskeletal joints


Insulator and shock absorber

Functions of the Body fluids

Composed of solute, solvents, electrolytes, proteins, etc.

body fluids

Potassium K+ (3.5-5 or 5.5), phosphate PO-4 (2.5-3.5), and magnesium Mg++

major ICF electrolytes

sodium Na (135-145), bicarbonate HCO3 (22-26) and chloride Cl (96-106).

major ECF electrolytes

Refers to the concentration of particles in a solution

Tonicity of Body fluids

Refers to the concentration of particles in a solution

Tonicity of Body fluids

Body fluids comparable with 0.9% NaCl

ISOTONIC

Refers to the concentration of particles in a solution

Tonicity of Body fluids

Body fluids comparable with 0.9% NaCl

ISOTONIC

fluids have a higher or greater concentration of solutes (usually sodium) compared with plasma; ex. Is 3% NaCl

HYPERTONIC

fluids have a lesser or lower solute concentration than plasma; ex. Is 0.45%, 0.33% NaCL solution

HYPOTONIC

fluids have a lesser or lower solute concentration than plasma; ex. Is 0.45%, 0.33% NaCL solution

HYPOTONIC

Specialized neurons in the hypothalamus


Highly sensitive to serum osmolality


Triggers thirst promoting increased fluid intake


Also sensitive to change in BV & BP through the info relayed by baroreceptors (stretch)


A decreased in BV by 10%


Systolic BP falls below 90 mmHg


Right Atrium (RA) is underfilled – low venous return


Osmoreceptors

osmoreceptors stimulates hypothalamus to synthesize ADH (from hypothalamus, posterior pituitary gland)

Increased osmolality

osmoreceptors stimulates hypothalamus to synthesize ADH (from hypothalamus, posterior pituitary gland)

Increased osmolality

ADH is inhibited

Decreased osmolality

a critical regulator of blood volume, electrolyte balance, and systemic vascular resistance

renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS)
