Hemadynamic disorders, thromboembolism and shock - Edema
4 important questions on Hemadynamic disorders, thromboembolism and shock - Edema
What is the main cause of Edema caused by Increases in hydrostatic pressure?
e.g. Venous thrombosis
It can also be caused by cardiac, renal, and hepatic failure
How does congestive heart failure result in edema?
However, heart failure causes decreased renal blood flow, which activates renin-angiotensin-aldosterone causing an increased blood volume, and thereby resulting in (more) edema.
How do malnutrition, nephrotic syndrome and decreased hepatic synthesis result in edema?
of fluid from the circulation, thus edema
- Higher grades + faster learning
- Never study anything twice
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
Edema in which organs have the biggest risk
- Brain -> because of the unyielding skull
- Larynx -> it blocks the airway
- (Lungs, because edema is between alveoli)
The question on the page originate from the summary of the following study material:
- A unique study and practice tool
- Never study anything twice again
- Get the grades you hope for
- 100% sure, 100% understanding
