1. They are lined by two membranes referred to as the serous membranes. One membrane lines the cavity wall (parietal membrane, and the other covers the organs within the cavity (visceral membrane)
2. Fluid between the membranes is called serous fluid

Function of Serous FluidFunction of Serous Fluid
1. Provide lubrication as the surfaces move against each other
2. Normally, only small amount of serous fluid is present, because production and reabsorption take place at a constant rate

Formation of Serous FluidFormation of Serous Fluid
• It is formed as ultrafiltrates of plasma, with no additional material contributed by the membrane cells depends on two different pressures:
1. Hydrostatic pressure
2. Colloid pressure

Effusion of Serous FluidEffusion of Serous Fluid
• It is the disruption of the mechanism of serous fluid formation and reabsroption causes an increase in fluid between the membranes

Classification of EffusionClassification of Effusion
1. Transudates
• Causes
• They produced because of a systemic disorder that disrupts the balance in the regulation of fluid filtration and reabsorption as the change in hydrostatic pressure created by congestive heart failure or the hypoproteinemia associated with the nephrotic syndrome

Pericardial FluidPericardial Fluid
1. Normally, only a small amount (10-50 mL) of fluid is found between the pericardial serous membranes
2. Pericardial effusions are result primarily of changes in the permeability of the membranes due to infection (pericarditis), malignancy, trauma, or metabolic disorders as uremia

Peritoneal FluidPeritoneal Fluid
1. Accumulations of fluid in the peritoneal fluid cavity is called ascites, and the fluid is commonly referred to as ascitic fluid rather than peritoneal fluid
2. Hepatic disorder, such as cirrhosis, are frequent causes ascitic transudative fluids
3. Bacterial infections (peritonitis) are most frequent causes of ascitic exudative fluids

42
Ascitic Transudates vs Ascitic Transudates vs ExudatesExudates 1. Differentiation between ascitic fluid transudates
and exudates is more difficult that for pleural and pericardial effusions
2. Serum/ascites albumin gradient is recommended over the fluid/serum total protein and LDH ratios for detection for the transudates of hepatic origin
![Page 43: 1 Chapter 16 Serous Fluid Professor A. S. Alhomida Disclaimer The texts, tables and images contained in this course presentation (BCH 376) are not my own,](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bf701a28abf838c7d878/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

Ascitic Transudates vs Ascitic Transudates vs Exudates, Cont’dExudates, Cont’d
3. A difference (gradient) of 1.1 or greater suggests a transudates effusion of hepatic origin, and lower gradients are associated with exudative effusions

Fluid albumin = 1.2 mg/dL
Gradient 3.8 – 1.2 = 2.6 then indicating hepatic effusion
