Oedema, Congestion and Shock

Define oedema

• Excessive accumulation of fluid in the interstitial space and body cavities

• Space between vessel and cell

Hydrothorax is a/an

• buildup of watery fluid in the pericardial cavity

• collection of serous fluid within the pleural cavities

• accumulation of fluid in the peritoneal cavity

Our body consists of .............% fluids

Choose correct statement/s

• Active hyperemia is an increase in blood supply to an organ

• Hyperemia increased inflow leads to erythema

• Congestion is not commonly leads to oedema

Select the correct pathophysiological categories of oedema

• Inflammation

• Increased osmotic pressure

• Decreased hydrostatic pressure

• Sodium retention

• Lymphatic obstruction

Angiotensinogen is a non protein molecule synthesized by the liver

• True

• False

How does water and salt retention causes oedema?

• By increasing the plasma volume and increasing the transudation

• By decreasing the plasma volume and decreasing the transudation

• By increasing the plasma volume and decreasing the transudation

• By decreasing the plasma volume and increasing the transudation

Select example/s of disease associated with reduced plasma osmotic pressure (hypoproteinemia)

• liver cirrhosis

• malnutrition

• protein-losing gastroenteropathy

• protein-losing glomerulopathies

Protein-rich fluid called as

• transudate

• exudate
