A typical adult has a blood volume of approximately 5 liters, with females generally having less blood volume than males. Blood volume is regulated by the kidneys. B V = P V 1 â H C {\displaystyle BV={\frac {PV}{1-HC}}}. Blood volume measurement may be used in people with congestive heart failure, chronic hypertension, renal failure and critical care. The use of relative blood volume changes during dialysis is of questionable utility.
Urinary System: Physiology & Urine Formation. I). Volume of blood filtered. Kidneys are 1% of body weight and use 20-25% of the oxygen. Â¼ of the cardiac output is delivered to the kidneys each minute (cardiac output is the amount of blood pumped out of the ventricle each minute) a regular bottle of water contains about 590 ml. 1000 to 1200ml of blood go through each glumeruli of each nephron every minute. (2 water bottles) Equals 650 ml of plasma (blood cells cannot be filtered) 1/5 of this goes through the renal tubules. (130 ml of filtrate) The entire plasma volume is filtered 60X a day or 180 liters of water per day. (304.6 water bottles per day) Not all of the filtered material is excreted.
