Bed rest to allow enhanced blood flow and therefore healing of the affected area

If a person has lost a significant amount of blood but still maintains a normal blood pressure it does not necessarily mean that the person is maintaining adequate perfusion. Which of the following best explains why this is so?

Blood vessels are constricting causing greater peripheral resistance

The "pushing" pressure of this fluid is usually very weak

HP if 0 MM

Examine the lower left of Focus Figure 19.1. Assume you have a U-tube with a semipermeable membrane separating the solutions on either side. Predict what will occur to the water level if large, nondiffusible solutes are added only to the left arm of the tube

The water level on the left side of the U-tube will rise.

Largest artery of the body.

aorta

Supplies pelvic structures.

internal iliac artery

Which vessels carry blood toward the heart?

veins

Using the same client, Mr. Orange, with the same pressures, what is the client's NFP at the venous end, NFPv?

(22 + 1) - (26 + 0)= -3 mm

Assume you have a U-tube with a semipermeable capillary membrane made of simple squamous epithelium separating the solutions on either side. Blood will be on the left side of the tube, and watery extracellular fluid (ECF) will be on the right side of the tube. Predict what will occur to the water levels by hydrostatic pressure, the pressure of watery fluid pushing on a boundary.

A pump pushing down on the left arm of the U-tube containing blood will increase ECF fluid levels on the right side.

The "pushing" pressure of this fluid is high and results from blood pressure

Mr. Orange has hypertension (HTN) and other vessel disorders, and his brachial blood pressure is ~160/100. Assume his HPc is ~44 mm and other pressures are unaffected. What is his NFPa?

NFPa = (44 + 1) - (0 + 26) = +19 mm

Ms. Pineapple has poor venous return and edema, interstitial fluid buildup. Her HPif can be estimated at ~3 mm. Predict the effect this has on her NFPa (arteriolar end) compared to a normal NFPa if other values remain the same. Sort the NFPa descriptions into the appropriate bins for Ms. Pineapple with edema or a typical client with no edema.

NFPa with edema: NFPa is decreased from normal ; NFPa = (35+1) - (3+26) = 36-29 = +7 mmHg NFPa without edema: no change in NFPa Both: NFPa is directed out toward interstitial fluid Neither: NFPa is increased from normal ; NFPa is directed inward toward the capillary ; NFPa = (35+1) - (3+26) = -7 mmHg

OP if 1MM

The "pulling" pressure of this fluid is usually due to large albumens and globulins:

OPc 26 MM

What is the main function of the lymphatic system?

The lymphatic system returns leaked fluid and plasma proteins that escape from the bloodstream to the blood.

Which of the following represents a correct statement about pressures at the arteriolar side of the capillary bed? HPif, OPif, and OPc are all "pulling" into the blood of the capillary. The pressures directed into the blood at the arteriolar end are OPc and HPif. The only pressure directed out of capillary blood into interstitial fluid is HPc. The pressures directed into interstitial fluid are HPc and HPif.

The pressures directed into the blood at the arteriolar end are OPc and HPif.

Which of the following mechanisms is NOT used to propel lymph through lymphatic vessels?
