-escape of plasma proteins into the interstitial fluid due to capillary damage

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The escape of plasma proteins into the interstitial fluid would increase the oncotic pressure in the interstitial space, leading to a decrease in the net oncotic pressure favoring reabsorption at the venous end of the capillary. However, this increase in oncotic pressure would not be enough to offset the increase in hydrostatic pressure caused by the escape of plasma proteins, which would result in an overall increase in ultrafiltration.
