The edema in terms of either increase or a decrease in one of the four pressures that causes bulk flow with respect to four patients suffering from edema.

(2) The bulk flow pressures experienced by Mrs. So during premature labor shows edema in her legs.

(3) A patient named Mr. Herrera is in anaphylactic shock with leaky capillaries, allowing plasma proteins that are normally kept inside the blood vessels to escape into the interstitial fluid. Determine the bulk flow pressures altered in this case and direction it the changes.
