Pathophysiology of Fluid Imbalance Cascade Diagram

The following article you can download discusses the chief goal of fluid management based upon current understanding of the pathophysiology of fluid imbalance. This understanding should be to ensure adequate oxygen delivery by optimizing blood oxygenation, perfusion pressure, and circulating volume, accordingly. And the picture shows cascade of pathophysiologic processes triggered by shock. You will be described with sections such as hypovolemi…

Renin Angiotensin Aldosteron System Diagram in Fluid Homeostasis

The following diagram shows the renin-angiotensin-aldosteron system (RAAS) which plays an important role in the regulation of fluid and electrolyte balance (sodium and volume homeostasis). Renin is an enzyme that cleaves angiotensinogen to form angiotensin I. It is converted to angiotensin II by the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). Angiotensin II stimulates the synthesis and release of aldosteron, this aldosteron hormone increase the absorp…
