Fluid Shift Mechanism

Fluid shifts from the extracellular space into the blood in response to low blood pressure, increasing blood volume and pressure. When blood pressure drops, filtration across capillaries is reduced, causing fluid to move from tissues into circulating blood. This fluid-shift mechanism returns blood pressure and volume to normal levels.
