The movement of fluid through the human capillary wall in relation to venous pressure and to the colloid osmotic pressure of the blood. J Clin Invest 1932;11:63-95 Crossref ...
Plasma volume expanders, in the form of colloid or crystalloid solutions, work to restore intravascular volume by increasing the oncotic pressure in the intravascular space. Water moves into the ...
In cases of burn shock, increased capillary permeability, hydrostatic pressure, and colloid oncotic pressure contribute to loss of plasma volume from the microvasculature into the interstitium ...
Fluid moves from the interstitial space into the intravascular space, increasing circulating blood volume. This leads to an increase in central venous pressure and cardiac output, stroke volume, blood ...
The mean number of days alive without use of mechanical ventilation in the first 7 days was 2.1 days in the colloid group and 1.8 days in the crystalloid group (mean difference, 0.30 days; 95% CI ...
Generalized edema is often a feature of heart failure, when the hydrostatic pressure in the blood vessels rises. In conditions such as nephrotic syndrome and liver failure, the oncotic pressure ...
