Sample text

A similar thing is true for the lymph flow rate (LFR): with an increase of the lymphatic preload, the LFR can also rise only to a certain maximum value. This maximum value is called the transport capacity of the lymphatic system. The distinction between the LFR at rest and the transport capacity is called the functional reserve of the lymphatic system. ❸ Only a limited amount of lymph can pass through the lymphatic system in a given time (limited capacity). This lymph output cannot be surpassed even with full activation of the lymphangion motor function.

At the end of the filling phase, when the interstitium is emptied, the lymph pressure in the initial lymph vessel is higher than the tissue pressure. Emptying Phase (Fig. 2C) As long as the tissue pressure is higher than the lymph capillary pressure, the interstitial fluid flows into the lymph capillaries, which lowers the tension in the interstitium.

This means that, besides the previously cited factors, an increase in the capillary filtration coefficients also leads to an increase in the net ultrafiltrate. This is the case, for example, with acute inflammation. ❢ 24 NOTE Acute inflammation causes increases in the capillary filtration coefficient, CBP, and permeability of the blood capillaries and postcapillary venules to protein molecules. The COP in the interstitial fluid increases, and the IP decreases. As a consequence, net ultrafiltrate formed per unit of time increases.
