Regulation of fluid balance
ECF Volume: Maintains blood pressure
ECF Osmolarity: Prevents swelling or shrinking of cells
ECF Volume: Maintains blood pressure - Short Term
A Change in ECF Volume can raise or lower blood pressure
Barorecepter reflexes: Alter Cardiac output and Total Peripheral Resistance leading to a compensatory alteration in blood pressure
Fluid automatically shifts between plasma and interstitial fluid with rises or fall in blood pressure
Relation between Salt Balance and ECF Volume
The total sodium load (quantity of sodium, not its concentration) in the ECF determines the total amount of water that will be osmotically retained
The total sodium load is determined by the balance relation

Control of sodium load
Control of amount filtered by regulating GFR (Glomerular Filtration Rate)
Control of sodium reabsorption through the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone system
ECF Osmolarity: Prevents swelling or shrinking of cells
ECF hypertonicity is associated with dehydration
ECF hypotonicity is associated with overhydration
Control of water balance is by thirst and vasopressin
Blood pressure and renal handling of sodium
