BLOOD VOLUME
This document discusses blood volume, including its definition as the total amount of blood circulating in the body, normally around 5-6 liters for a 70kg person. Physiological variations in blood volume are described based on factors like sex, exercise, altitude, and pregnancy. Pathological increases and decreases in volume are also outlined. Methods for measuring blood volume directly and indirectly are provided, along with factors that regulate volume, such as osmoreceptors, baroreceptors, and the renin-angiotensin system. Finally, examples of applied physiology involving decreased or increased blood volume are presented.
