Mechanisms Controlling Fluid and Electrolyte

Movement•Diffusion


6


Movement


Fig. 17-4. Diffusion is the movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of lowconcentration. Eventually the sugar molecules are evenly distributed.

7


Movement•Facilitated Diffusion•Active Transport


8


Movement


Fig. 17-5. Sodium-potassium pump. As sodium (Na+) diffuses into the cell and potassium (K+) diffuses out of thecell, an active transport system supplied with energy delivers Na+ back to the extracellular compartment and K+ tothe intracellular compartment. ATP, Adenosine triphosphate.

9


Movement•Osmosis


10


Movement


Fig. 17-6. Osmosis is the process of water movement through a semipermeable membrane from an area of lowsolute concentration to an area of high solute concentration.

Movement•Osmosis, continued

Measurement of osmolality Osmotic movement of fluids


12


Movement


Fig. 17-7. Effects of water status on red blood cells. A, Hypotonic solution (H2O excess) results in cellularswelling. B, Isotonic solution (normal H2O balance) results in no change. C, Hypertonic solution (H2O deficit)results in cellular shrinking.

13


Movement• Hydrostatic Pressure• Oncotic Pressure


14

Fluid Movement in Capillaries


Fig. 17-8. Dynamics of fluid exchange between a capillary and tissue. An equilibrium exists between forces filteringfluid out of the capillary and forces absorbing fluid back into the capillary. Note that the hydrostatic pressure isgreater at the arterial end of the capillary than at the venous end. The net effect of pressures at the arterial end ofthe capillary causes a movement of fluid into the tissue. At the venous end of the capillary, there is net movementof fluid back into the capillary.

15

Fluid Movement in Capillaries

•Fluid Shifts Shifts of plasma to interstitial fluid

•Elevation of venous hydrostatic pressure

•Decrease in plasma oncotic pressure•Elevation of interstitial oncotic pressure

Shifts of interstitial fluid to plasma

Regulation of Water Balance

•Hypothalamic Regulation•Pituitary Regulation•Adrenal Cortical Regulation
