Chapter 14, Problem 44RA
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The total pressure favoring filtration.
Introduction:
The blood plasma leaks out from the vessels due to the forces acting on them in the extracellular region, and is known as interstitial fluid or tissue fluid. The tissue fluid contains all the components of blood plasma except formed elements. The interstitial fluid maintains the fluid balance between the intracellular and the extracellular fluids.

Given the following values, calculate the fluid movement between capillaries and tissues:
hydrostatic pressure of the capillary = 25 mm Hg
hydrostatic pressure of the interstitial fluid = 5 mm Hg
colloid osmotic pressure of the capillary = 15 mm Hg
colloid osmotic pressure of the interstitial fluid = 5 mm Hg
Group of answer choices
30 mm Hg into the capillary
30 mm Hg out of the capillary
10 mm Hg into the capillary
10 mm Hg out of the capillary
Hydrostatic pressure inside the capillary = 34 mmHgColloid osmotic pressure of the blood plasma = 27 mmHgHydrostatic pressure in the interstitial fluid = 2 mmHgColloid osmotic pressure in the interstitial fluid = 4 mmHgWhat is the total pressure favoring filtration?What is the total pressure favoring absorption?What is the net effect of these forces on fluid movement across the wall of the capillary?
Which of the following is true regarding plasma colloid osmotic pressure ?
1) It is less than interstitial osmotic pressure
2) It decreases by significantly in the muscle capillaries as blood flows from the arteriole end to the venous end
3) It is primarily caused by the presence of the substances in the plasma such as sodium and potassium
4) It increases in response to an increase in plasma fibrinogen concentration
