📖 1. Fluid Compartments

🔑 Key Concepts & Definitions

  • Total Body Water (TBW): The total amount of fluid in the body, approximately 60% of adult body weight, divided into intracellular and extracellular compartments.
  • Intracellular Fluid (ICF): Fluid located within cells, constituting about 60% of TBW; rich in potassium (K⁺) and phosphate (HPO₄²⁻).
  • Extracellular Fluid (ECF): Fluid outside cells, about 40% of TBW; includes interstitial fluid and plasma, high in sodium (Na⁺) and chloride (Cl⁻).
  • Interstitial Fluid: ECF surrounding tissue cells, makes up roughly 75% of ECF.
  • Plasma: The liquid component of blood, accounts for about 25% of ECF; transports nutrients, hormones, and waste.
  • Osmolality: The concentration of solutes in body fluids, influencing water movement between compartments.
