Which of the following factors will increase the net filtration pressure to move fluid out of capillaries?
A) decreased plasma albumen
B) increased blood hydrostatic pressure
C) decreased tissue hydrostatic pressure
D) all of the above
E) none of the above

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Decreased plasma albumen will decrease colloid osmotic pressure of the capillaries, resulting in an increase in net filtration pressure. Increased blood hydrostatic pressure will increase the pressure difference between the capillaries and the tissue fluid, causing an increase in net filtration pressure. Decreased tissue hydrostatic pressure will also increase the pressure difference between the capillaries and the tissue fluid, leading to an increase in net filtration pressure. Therefore, all of the above factors will increase the net filtration pressure to move fluid out of capillaries.
