Terms in this set (224)
Intracellular fluid (ICF) Fluid inside cells, comprising 40% of adult weight
Extracellular fluid (ECF) Fluid outside cells, with 20% of body weight
Interstitial fluid (ISF) Fluid between cells and vessels, 40% of body weight
Osmotic pressure Pressure from solutes pulling water across compartments
Oncotic pressure Pressure from albumin keeping water in blood vessels
Major solutes in the body Include albumin, Na+, K+, Po4-, Mg++, Ca++, and HCO3-
Isotonic solution Solution with same tonicity as blood, like 0.9% NaCl
Hypotonic solution Solution with fewer particles than blood, shifts water into cells
Hypertonic solution Solution with more particles than blood, shifts water out of cells

Starling's law of capillary forces Balances hydrostatic and oncotic pressures in capillaries
RAAS system Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system for blood volume regulation
Acid Donates hydrogen ions in a solution, exists in volatile and non-volatile forms
Base Accepts hydrogen ions, can be alkaline or basic
Carbonic Acid Formed when CO2 mixes with H2O in blood
pH scale Measures H+ ions, high pH is alkaline, low pH is acidic
Buffer Regulates acid/base balance by absorbing or donating H+ ions
Protein buffering system Largest buffering system
Is an amino carboxyl group
Able to absorb or donate H+ ions as needed
The primary protein Hemoglobin

Phosphate buffering system Regulates intracellular environment
Can take on acidic form or a basic form
Carbonic acid/bicarbonate The equation CO2+H2O ↔ H2CO3 ↔ H+ +HCO3-
Used by the kidneys and the lungs as compensation for high CO2 or High
bicarbonate.
When CO2 is high(Low pH) H+ is converted to CO2 in the lungs. And
Bicarbonate is released to compensate for high acidity.
When HCO3 is high (High pH) HCO3 can be released by the kidney's
Third-spacing when, during illness, fluid fills spaces and cavities of the body that typically
would not contain fluid.
Is edema caused by third-spacing third-spacing would cause edema because of the fluid that is filling the cavity
or space due to illness or injury.
