Q

Body fluid composition

A

Water makes up 60% of weightIntracellular water–40% of weight, 2/3 of total body water, high K +Extra cellular water–20% of weight, 1/3 of total body water, high Na +EC water is1. Intravascular/plasma 25%2. Extravascular/interstitial 75%

Movement of fluid within the body depends on…..

A

… The balance btwn 1. Filtration (incr hydrostatic P, decr oncotic P)2. Resorption (decr hydrostatic P, incr oncotic P)occurs at the level of the capillary

Q

hyper vs hypotonic fluid losses

A

hypotonic fluid losses (loss of water >solutes)–>tonicity of extracellular fluid incr–>water shifts from intracellular to extracellular–>intracellular dehydrationhypertonic fluid losses (loss of solutes >water)–>tonicity of intracellular fluid will be higher or hypertonic and fluid to shift from extracellular to intracellular–>extracellular dehydration
