TBW/TBWt men: women: |
men: ~ 60% women: ~ 50% everyone 50-70% |
|
Volume of ICF relative to TBW |
2/3 of TBW ICF containes ~2x the solute as ECF, therefore 2x H2O due to equilibrium between two compartements. |
|
Volume of ECF relative to TBW |
1/3 TBW |
|
TBW = ? |
TBW = ECF + ICF |
|
ECF = ? |
ECF = ISF + plasma + minor fluid compartments (transcellular fluid, usually ignored) |
|
An increase in adipose tissues = ______ in percent body water? |
decrease in percent body water |
|
What drives the movement of H2O between ICF and ECF? |
Osmotic pressure gradients ICF and ECF are in osmotic equilibrium d/t the high permeability to water of most cell membranes |
|
What is ISF? |
ISF is ultrafiltrate of plasma across the capillary walls "fluid bathing cells" |
|
What is permeable to ISF? What is impermeable to ISF? |
Permeable to small ions Impermeable to proteins Therefore, ISF contains little protein. Plasma has protein. |
|
Blood Volume = |
Total volume of intravascular compartment Plasma + blood cells (erythrocytes, leukocytes, and platelets) |
|
Transcellular Fluid |
trapped in small compartments surrounded with epithelial cells i.e. cerebrospinal fluid surrounding brain and spinal cord, synovial fluid, intraoccular fluid, digestive secretions, ect. usually ignored in this context. |
|
Why do plasma proteins affect ion concentrations of plasma and ISF? |
they occupy space (they are large) and are negatively charged |
|
What is the % TBW and typical volume in L of a 70 kg man? a 70 kg female? |
Men: 60% of BW, 42L Women: 50% of BW, 35L |
|
TBW loss daily with normal activities? |
~1-2 L/day (~2.5 -5% TBW) |
|
TBW loss daily with perspiration with normal activities? with exertion in hot, dry weather? |
normal: 1 - 2 L/day hot/dry: 1 to 3 L/hour |
|
TBW loss daily with urination?
|
1 - 2 L/day |
|
TBW loss daily with defecation?
|
0.1 L/day severe diarrhea can increase to 25 L over 24 period (~60% TBW) |
|
All body fluids are? |
electrically neutral |
|
Major cation of ECF? |
|
|
Major cation of ICF |
K+ |
|
Asymmetric distribution of Na+ and K+ maintain metabolic energy via? |
Na+-K+-ATPase |
|
Two major anions of the ECF? |
Cl- and HCO3- (are excluded from the ICF due to negative membrane potential and weak active transport mechanisms) |
|
Major anions of ICF? |
Proteins and organic phosphates (Pi) |
|
Why is the ionic composition of ISF and Plasma similar? |
Because the capillary endothelium is freely permeable to small ions. |
|
Why are proteins excluded from ISF? |
Because endothelium is not permeable to proteins. |
|
why is there a slight difference in the concentration of small solutes between plasma and ISF? ie cation concentration of protein-free solution of ISF is lowered by ~5% and the anion conc. is ~5% higher compared to plasma |
*plasma proteins occupy space, make all solutes more concentrated in remaining water *plasma proteins in plasma carry a negative charge. (attract cations into plasma from ISF and repel anions out of plasma into ISF) |
|
Why is the total solute concentration (osmolality) the same in ICF and ECF? |
Because cell membranes are very permeable to H2O, if transient differences in osmolality occur between the two, water quickly equilibrates between the two compartments. |
|
Why is the osmolality of plasma 1.3 mOs/L greater than the osmolality of ISF? |
Due to plasma protein per se and slight excess of permeable ions |
|
Proteins occupy ___ % of plasma volume? |
7% |
|
Equivalent |
describes the amount of charged (ionized) solute and is the number of moles multiplied by the valence of the solute. |
