Effusions can form when capillary permeability ______, hydrostatic pressure ______, colloid osmotic pressure ______, or lymphatic drainage is obstructed.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An effusion is the abnormal accumulation of serosal fluid.Effusions will form when the normal physiological mechanisms responsible for the formation or absorption of serosal fluid are impaired.Thus fluid will accumulate if capillary permeability increases, hydrostatic pressure increases, colloid osmotic pressure decreases, or lymphatic drainage is obstructed.
