Kaplan and Goljan both maintain that plasma volume is 1/3 of ECF and interstitial volume is 2/3 of ECF.
First Aid and BRS say plasma volume is 1/4 of ECF and interstial volume is 3/4 of ECF.
Therefore, if a question asks, how much 0.9 M IV saline do you give a person to raise their plasma volume by 1 liter, what do you answer?
