BIO 2640- Body Fluids (Jeff Eichold OCC-Southfield)

What two components make up the extracellular fluid (ECF)? What is the percent of ECF and volume for each?

1. Interstitial fluid (IF) - 80% of ECF : Volume = 12L 2. Plasma - 20% of ECF : Volume = 3L

What are the 5 different types of extracellular fluid (ECF)?

1. Plasma 2.Interstitial Fluid (IF) 3. Lymph 4. Cerebrospinal FLuid (CSF) 5. Synovial Fluid

How many liters returns to plasma in 24hrs?

17 liters

How many liters leaves plasma in 24hrs?

20 liters

What percentage of body weight is the extracellular fluid (ECF)? What is the volume?

20% of body weight Volume = 15L

Since body fluids is 60% of total body weight. So, body fluids is how many liters?

40 liters

What percentage of body weight is the intracellular fluid (ICF)? What is the volume?

40% of body weight Volume = 25L

How many ml leaves plasma to the cerebrospinal fluid and back to plasma in 24hrs?

500ml

Total body water is what percentage of body weight?

60%

What is extracellular fluid (ECF)?

All fluids found outside of body cells

Where is the ECF 4) Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) found?

Around the brain and spinal cord

Where is the ECF 1) Plasma found?

Blood vessels

What is the most analyzed body fluid to determine illness?

Blood!

In the extracellular fluid exchange, Plasma can also become __, which can also become plasma.

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)

What can too much interstitial fluid (IF) this can lead to?

Edema! (Swelling)

Where is the ECF 5) Synovial Fluid found?

In joint cavities of the body

In the extracellular fluid exchange, Plasma becomes ____ because it is pressure driven.

Interstitial Fluid (IF)

Where is the ECF 2) Interstitial fluid (IF) found?

Just outside cells

In what part of the ECF is the 3 liter deficit accounted for?

Lymph

What part of the ECF does NOT becomes Interstitial fluid?

Lymph

In the extracellular fluid exchange, interstitial fluid becomes __

Lymph (interstitial fluid)

Where is the ECF 3) Lymph found?

Lymphatic vessels

Values are in references to a healthy 154lb (70kg) adult __.

Male

What does the intracellular Fluid (ICF) release to the interstitial fluid then to the plasma?

Metabolic wastes/secretions

In the extracellular fluid exchange, Plasma becomes Interstitial fluid, and interstitial fluid can become __

Plasma

What ECF is approx. 3 liters of the total blood volume (approx. 5 liters)?

Plasma

Plasma also becomes __ which is one way

Synovial Fluid

Why do we need interstitial fluid (IF)?

because it has nutrients!

What is intracellular fluid (ICF)?

the combined fluid inside the trillions of body cells (Intracellular fluid compartment)
