Abstract:
New aspects and details of the mechanism of the microcirculation in the tissues are discussed in the paper. Particular attention is payed to the role of the blood pressure amplitude for the filtration and resorption processes through the capillary wall. A new model of the microcirculation is discribed in which the interstitial space is considered as a functional unit determining the intensity of the transcapillary exchange processes. The components of the hydraulic interstitial pressure are characterized as well as the process of formation and transport of limphatic fluid. The proposed model is a base for the better understanding of the theory of microcirculation.
