Hemodynamic Disorders Thromboembolic Disease Shock

Overview
Edema (increased fluid in the ECF) Hyperemia (INCREASED flow) Congestion (INCREASED backup) Hemorrhage (extravasation) Hemostasis (opposite of thrombosis) Thrombosis (clotting blood) Embolism (downstream travel of a clot) Infarction (death of tissues w/o blood) Shock (circulatory failure/collapse)

EDEMA
ONLY 4 POSSIBILITIES!!!
Increased Hydrostatic Pressure Reduced Oncotic Pressure Lymphatic Obstruction Sodium/Water Retention

WATER 60% of body


2/3 of body water is INTRA-cellular The rest is INTERSTITIAL Only 5% is INTRA-vascular EDEMA is SHIFT to the INTERSTITIAL SPACE HYDRO -THORAX, -PERICARDIUM, -PERITONEAL
