Summary Introduction

To determine: The net effect on fluid movement between capillaries and tissue spaces based on the given data.

Introduction: When hydrostatic pressure is greater than the colloid pressure, the fluid is pushed out of the capillaries. When the colloid osmotic pressure is greater than the hydrostatic pressure, the fluid is pushed inside the capillaries.

Blood pressure at the arterial end of capillaries is about 40 mm Hg in humans. If blood pressure at the venous end is about 15 mm Hg, and colloid osmotic pressure is 25 mm Hg throughout, what is the net effect on fluid movement between capillaries and tissue spaces?
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?
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
