The net filtration pressure in the glomerulus of the kidney is

Question

The net filtration pressure in the glomerulus of the kidney is (A) 70 mm Hg (B) 35 mm Hg (C) 25 mm Hg (D) 10 mm Hg

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Effective Filtration Pressure (EFP) or Net Filtration Pressure (NFP) is glomerular blood hydrostatic pressure minus the colloidal osmotic pressure of blood and capsular hydrostatic pressure. EFP/NFP = GBHP - (BCOP + CHP) = 60 - (32 + 18) = 10 mm Hg.

Effective Filtration Pressure (EFP) or Net Filtration Pressure (NFP) is glomerular blood hydrostatic pressure minus the colloidal osmotic pressure of blood and capsular hydrostatic pressure. EFP/NFP = GBHP - (BCOP + CHP) =60−(32+18)=10mmHg.
