Intracellular |
Consist of 28 L |
|
|
|
Extracellular |
14L. consist of intravascular, interstitial and transcellular fluid |
|
|
|
Blood |
5.0L. Consists of plasma and cells |
|
|
|
What contains in the transcellular fluid? |
Synovial, intraocular, cerebrospinal, pleural |
4 type |
|
|
What fluid movements is present between plasma and interstitium and how? |
Filtration: determined by capillary hydrostatic pressure minus tissue hydrostatic pressure. (inward force) Osomosis: determined by plasma protein concentration minus interstitial protein concentration (inward force = osmotic pressure) |
|
|
|
What is edema? |
Fluid excess in interstitium |
|
|
|
What does edema do in the body? |
1.) increased hydrostatic pressure 2.) increase capillary permeability 3.) decrease lymphatic circulation 4.) decrease plasma proteins leading to decrease of osmotic pressure |
4 examples |
|
|
Causes of dehydration |
1.) Insufficient water intake 2.) Vomiting/diarrhea 3.) sweating |
|
|
|
What's the pH of the plasma? |
7.35 |
|
|
|
What happen when pH is too low? Or when is too high? |
Undergoes acidosis or alkalosis |
|
|
|
What's a buffer system? |
It's purpose is to level off pH fluctuations, an equilibrium reaction |
|
|
|
What's the effect of edema? |
1.) swelling 2.) pain: exert pressure on the nerves locally 3.) functional impairment: ROM Decreased hematocrit, serum sodium, urine: low specific gravity, high volume |
|
|
|
What's the effect of dehydration? |
1.) dry mucous membrane 2.) low blood pressure 3.) decreasing mental function - loss conscious 4.) increasing Thirst and heart rate. Increased hematocrit, electrolytes, urine: high specific gravity, low volume. |
|
|
|
What ions are there in acidosis and alkolosis? |
Acidosis: H+ and CO2 Alkolosis: HCO3- (BICARBONATE) |
|
|
|
2 types of acidosis |
Metabolic: a decrease of serum pH bicarbonate, due to renal or metabolic problems.
Respiratory: increase of H+ due to respitory problems such as increase of CO2 in blood.
Effects will be impairment of nerve system, compensation of deep, rapid breathing. |
|
|
|
2 types of alkalosis. |
Respitory: decrease of H+ in blood, less CO2 in blood due to increased respiration (hyperventilation) Metabolic: increase in serum pH (bicarbonate ions), due to vomiting Effects: increased irritability of nerve system. Restless, muscle twitching |
