Calculate shift of water between body compartments
Describe the Darrow-Yannet diagram
Identify the associated changes during homeostasis of volume and osmolality in the Darrow–Yannet (DY) diagram
Use the Darrow –Yannet (DY) diagram to describe unbalance conditions in body water and osmolality
Define the DY diagram given a condition (i.e. dehydration, primary adrenal insufficiency (hypotonic volume contraction), etc.)
Describe how plasma protein concentration [Pr] and hematocrit (Hct) can be used to define status of hydration under physiological or pathological situations
Describe how changes in plasma volume can affect Hct and [Pr] whereas plasma concentration affects only Hct
Describe volume expansion and contraction under isotonic, hyperosmotic and hyposmotic conditions and situations in which the previous conditions occur
