Q

What does the endothelial allow for in caps

A

Diffusion of small solutes and water, usually no proiteins or cells because they are too big

Q

What are the 4 factors that determine ultrafiltration

A
  • Capillary pressure (BP inside caps) Pc
  • Plasma colloid osmotic pressure (albumin inside caps) Pi(c)
  • interstitial fluid pressure (essentially 0) P(tis)
  • interstitial fluid colloid osmotic pressure (usually 0) pi (tis)

Q

PI(c)

A

Osmotic pressure inside the caps

22
Q

PI(tis)

A

Osmotic pressure inside the tissue

23
Q

What pressures favor filtration

A

Capillary pressure (Pc) and interstitial fluid colloid osmotic pressure

Fluid leaving the cell

24
Q

What pressure favor reabsorption

A

Plasma colloid osmotic pressure and interstitial fluid pressure

Fluid coming in

25
Q

Increasing which of the following would increase interstitial fluid formation (cap filtration)

A

Capillary hydrostatic pressure

Pressure in vessel pulling fluid towards it

26
Q

Administration of an alpha 1 receptor antagonist (blocker) would _______ filtration by increasing __________

A

Increase; capillary hydrostatic pressure

27
Q

How do you increase hydrostatic pressure

A

Block lymphatics, build up of fluid

28
Q

If hydrostatic pressure and on otic pressures in the body is the same, why does the liver produce more interstitial fluid than the brain

A

Liver capillaries have an increased Kf (bigger holes)

29
Q

Increase filtration

A

Increase interstitial fluid formation

30
Q

Increasing Pc (Capillary pressure) does what to filtration

A

Increases it

Dilate arterioles, constrict venules, increase CVP

31
Q

What does increasing tissue osmotic pressure do to filtration

A

Increases it

Block lymphatics, increase permeability to proteins

32
Q

What does decrease in capillary osmotic pressure do to filtration

A

Increases it

Liver failure, starvation

33
Q

What does decreasing tissue pressure do to filtration

A

Increases it

Increase lymph drainage (not really possible)

34
Q

What does increasing Kf do to filtration

A

Increases it

Burns, inflammation
Increases permeability

35
Q

Changes in _________ resistance affects filtration more than _______

A

Venous

Arteriolar

36
Q

What side is mroe important in cap flow

A

Venous

37
Q

What does a decrease in capillary pressure do to filtration

A

Decreases it

Constrict arterioles, dilate venules, decrease CVP, hemorrhage

38
Q

Decrease filtration

A

Reduce interstitial fluid formation

39
Q

What happens to filtration when you decrease tissue osmotic pressure

A

Decreases it.

More lymph drainage
Rid of protein that got out

40
Q

What happens when tou increase osmotic cap pressure to filtration

A

Decreases filtration

Dehydration, some cancers, hemolytic anemia

41
Q

What happens to filtration when you increase pressure of tissue

A

Decreases it

Edema, physical compression of tissue

42
Q

What happens to filtration when you decrease Kf?

A

Decreases filtration

Thickening of vessel walls, fibrosis
