The document summarizes the body's fluid compartments and regulation of fluid balance. It discusses the extracellular and intracellular fluid compartments, how fluid moves between compartments via osmosis, and factors that can disrupt fluid balance and cause edema. Specifically, it notes that the extracellular fluid compartment is divided into the interstitial fluid and plasma compartments, and lists causes of edema like increased capillary pressure, decreased plasma proteins, and increased capillary permeability.

The Body Fluid Compartments : Extracellular and Intracellular Fluids: Interstitial Fluid and Edema Body Fluids and The Kidneys
The maintenance of a relatively constant volume and a stable composition of the body fluids is essential for homeostasis Fluid Intake and Output are Balanced During Steady-State Conditions
Body Fluid Compartments
1. Extracellular Fluid Compartment - 14.0 L Interstitial - 11.0 L = 3/4 Plasma - 3.0 L = 1/4 2. Extracellular Fluid Compartment = 28.0 L 3. Transcellular Fluid Compartment 1to 2 liters - includes fluid in the following Spaces: Synovial Peritoneal Pericardial Intraocular Cerebrospinal fluid
Total Body Water is 60% of the body weight = 42 liters Extracellular Fluid 20% = 14.0L Intracellular Fluid 40% = 28.0L Blood Volume Blood contains both extracellular fluid (the fluid in the plasma) and intracellular fluid ( the fluid in the red blood cells)

Regulation of Fluid Exchange and Osmotic Equilibrium Between Intracellular and Extracellular Fluid Basic Principles of Osmosis and Osmotic Pressure Osmotic Equilibrium is Maintain Between Intracellular Fluid and Extracellular Fluid
Isotonic, Hypotonic and Hypertonic Fluids
Osmotic Equilibrium Between Intracellular and Extracellular Fluids is Rapidly Attained Volume and Osmolality of Extracellular Fluid in Abnormal States Basic Principles to Calculate Changes in Intracellular and Extracellular Fluid Volumes and Types of Therapy 1. Water moves rapidly across cell membrane ; therefore the osmolarities of ICF and ECF remain almost exactly equal to each other. 2. Cell membranes are most completely impermeable to many solutes ; therefore the number of osmoles in the ECF or ICF remain constant.

Clinical Abnormalities of Fluid Volume Regulation: Hyponatremia and Hypernatremia
Causes of Hyponatremia: - Excess Water - Loss of Sodium Causes of Hypernatremia: - Water loss - Excess of Sodium
EDEMA : presence of excess fluid in the body tissues A. Intracellular Edema A. depression of the metabolic systems of the tissues B. lack of adequate nutrition to the cells C. Inflammation B. Extracellular Edema A. abnormal leakage of fluid from the plasma to the interstitial spaces across the capillaries B. failure of the lymphatics to return fluid from the interstitium back into the blood
The most common clinical cause of interstitial fluid accumulation is excessive capillary fluid filtration Factors That Can Increase Capillary Filtration 1. Increase Filtration Coefficient - product of permeability and surface area of the capillaries ( k f ) 2.Increase Capillary Hydrostatic Pressure ( Pc ) 3. Decrease capillary Colloid Osmotic Pressure ( iic) Filtration = Kf x ( Pc - Pif - iic +iiif )
Major Factors that cause Increased Capillary Filtration of Fluid and Protein into the Interstitium: 1. Increased capillary Hydrostatic Pressure 2. Decreased Plasma Colloid Osmotic Pressure 3. Increased Capillary Permeability
Summary of Causes of Extracellular Edema 1. Increased capillary pressure A. Excessive kidney retention of salt and water 1. Acute and chronic kidney failure 2. Mineralocorticoid excess B. High venous pressure 1. Heart failure 2. Venous obstruction 3. Failure of venous pump A. paralysis of muscle B. immobilized parts of body C. Failure of venous valves
C. Decreased arteriolar resistance 1. Excessive body heat 2. Insufficiency of sympathetic nervous system 3. Vasodilator drugs II. Decreased plasma proteins A. Loss of proteins in urine ( nephrotic syndrome ) B. Loss of proteins from denuded skin areas 1. Burns 2. Wounds C. Failure to produce proteins 1. Liver disease 2. Serious protein or caloric malnutrition
III. Increased capillary permeability A. Immune reactions that cause release of histamine B. Toxins C. Bacterial infections D. Vitamin deficiency, especially vitamin C E. Prolonged ischemia F. Burns IV. Blockage of lymph return A. Cancer B. Infections ( filarial nematodes) C. Surgery D. Congenital absence or abnormality of lymphatic vessels
Safety Factors That Prevent Edema 1. The safety factors caused by low tissue compliance ( -3 mmHg ) 2. The safety factor caused by increased lymph flow ( 7 mmHg ) 3. The safety factor caused by washdown of proteins from the interstitial spaces ( 7 mmHg )
