In response to hemorrhage there is an increase in the synthesis of plasma proteins. Explain why. Begin your answer by defining hemorrhage and the acute physiological response associated with this condition
Henorrhage is the blood loss form the blood vessels into surrounding tissue. The acute physiological response would be -
Decrease in cardiac output and pulse pressure.
Changes would be sensed by the baroreceptor present in aortic arch and artrium.
decresed circulatory volume.
increased sympathetic outflow to heart and other organ.
Reduction in the concentration of albumin and globulin due to blood loss (hypoproteinemia),induces the synthesis of plasma volume in order to restore plasma volume.
