Starling Forces Explained Simply | Capillary Fluid Exchange Made Easy

Understand Starling forces — the essential pressures that control fluid movement across capillary walls. In this video we break down how hydrostatic and oncotic (colloid osmotic) pressures maintain the balance between filtration and reabsorption in the capillaries. Learn how this mechanism prevents edema, maintains blood volume, and supports homeostasis in human physiology. Topics Covered: What are Starling forces? Hydrostatic vs oncotic pressure Perfect for students of Anatomy & Physiology, Pathophysiology, Nursing, and Allied Health programs.
