Hydrostatic Versus Oncotic Pressure 

Thanks again for the comments everybody. I am glad this video appears to be helping so many people out.

literally went through multiple videos and I kept clicking off. Even after 6 years, this video helped my understanding sooooo much .

Finally a video that actually EXPLAINS! Thank you so much. Just what I was looking for.

Certainly it's truly an extraordinary lecture! I had a lot of confusion between these two pressures. I am very grateful!! I am studying pleural effusion and this made me understand a lot better the pathophysiology of that disease. Greetings from Guayaquil, Ecuador

couldnt understand this topic for the life of me but this video cleared it all up in 13 mins! Thanks a lot for the help!

Great video and so helpful! Your balloon analogy was helpful. Thanks, from a nursing student.

Thanks everybody! I'm glad people are finding this video helpful. Feel free to reference this site if it will help with assignments.

Taking Anatomy and Physiology 1 - this video was EXTREMELY HELPFUL!

Thank you for posting this! I kept missing practice questions for my national board dental exam on edema...but this cleared up my confusion. :)

Thanks so much. This has been a concept I struggled with a bit, but you cleared it up a lot.

Finally understand what is oncotic pressure now, thanks!

Thank you so much! You explained this so well, and now I have a much better understanding!

Wow so perfectly stated! Thank you 😊

Thanks so much. I have not understood this concept since A&P, and that was 4 years ago.

sir you really taught well.I need a great teacher like you.keep uploading videos sir.this is my humble request

this helped tremendously, clear explanation using pictures. thank you

Wonderful video!!! Thanks for the easy to understand explanation!

Thank u so much this was very helpful!! -A medical student from El Salvador :)

great video!

Awesome video! Helped me so much!!!!

So much clarity. Thanks!!

Thank you so much, my teacher did not explain it like you did. To bad I got it after the quiz. But I get it now.

Amazing video, shared and referenced!!

Thank you so much, fantastic explanation!!!!!

Very helpful for my med trauma class, thank you

Great video. Really clarified the concepts!

This was wonderful!! Thank you so much!

Finally. Thank you!

excellent explanation. Thank you so much!

This was awesome!!! Thank you!

Great explanation. Thank you!

This video is really helpful and very well explained.

LIFE SAVER! THANK YOU

Thanks a lot, the visual really helped.

Tx so much! Im taking Biochem and this video is gold! Thumbs up :D

this is great! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Great video! Thank you!

thank you ...you are a great help to me 💐

Very nice Video!

Great video!

great site by the way....very helpful, thank you :)

You're amazing!

Thank you my good sir 🙌

Thank you a lot!

Thank you so much ☺️☺️

Useful video

thanks a lot!

Thanks! Was struggling to grasp the concept of why fluid was accumulating in this interstitial space due low oncotic pressure. I understand now. I guess this means that increased hydrostatic pressure will also cause this fluid accumulation?

Thanks in advance

This may be a stupid question, but here goes. When a napkin is placed in a glass of liquid (water) osmosis or oncotic pressure is caused, beginning a continuous pressure. When the liquid gets to the ends of the napkin, does gradient pressure cause the liquid to leave the napkin? And, in this case, does the height of the end of the napkin in the glass opposed to the end of the napkin on the exterior have a syphon effect, which would be the differential of the force gravitational attraction (negative pressure)? Like I said, this being basic physics have anything to do with either or both types of pressure.? tia

TAS- WHATS MORE IMPORTANT IN HBP, TO BE LOOKING AT THE ONCOTIC OR THE HYDROSTATIC

but how is hydrostatic pressure caused by gravity? I get the lateral pressure against the walls from fluid flow, but why do explanations credit this pressure with being related to gravity?

hello ..i have a question ..why hidrostatic pressure influence the return of venous blood ? i don't understand the link beetwen them ..thank you

Hi there mate, is it ok if i use this website as a reference on my assignment(s) please?

Thanks, but pressure doesn't have direction though :)

The video is good and fine but if there is an some animation and edits its a video of extraordinary. Think about it🙄🙄🙄
