In modern medicine there is the concept of "periconceptional prevention".

In medicine, there is the concept of "autonomic dysfunction.

– Maintenance of oncotic pressure, coagulation, immune system…

This process is called oncotic pressure, which helps to keep the blood volume constant.

Most of it is found in the blood and it functions to maintain oncotic pressure.

The glomerular filtration pressure is equal to the glomerular hydrostatic pressure decreased by the oncotic plasma pressure due to the colloids.

Transudate results from increased hydrostatic or reduced oncotic pressure.

Decreased oncotic pressure predisposes gravid women to develop pulmonary edema.

Haemofiltration involves removal of water by a transmembrane pressure that is above the oncotic pressure of the plasma .

The perfusion is performed at a pressure, which is at least 15 mmHg and at least 15 mmHg lower than said oncotic pressure.

The fluid comprises an oncotic agent exerting an oncotic pressure larger than about 30 mmHg; and is cardioplegic by comprising a potassium concentration, which is between 15mM and 30 mM.

Because of decreased human serum albumin stratum, severe protein deficiency causes a lower oncotic pressure.

Albumin is the most abundant type of plasma protein and, therefore, is the greatest contributor to the plasma oncotic pressure.

Albumin has two main functions in plasma: maintaining the oncotic pressure (80% due to albumin in plasma) and transport.

One of the most critical functions of albumin is to maintain oncotic pressure as this is the force the draws fluid through the blood’s circulation.
