THE INSENSIBLE LOSS OF WATER

Physiological Reviews, 1942
The authors of the paper on The Insensible Loss of Water, p. 1, volume 22, no. 1 (January 1942) desire to record the following corrections: p. 6: The column at the right of figure 1, designated “grams,” should start at 517 and increase by 345 for each interval.

Insensible water loss in infants

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1967
HE PHENOMENON of insensible loss of water was first noted by Sanetorius in 1614, when he suspended himself from one arm of a beam balance and observed a progressive weight loss2 He conceived the name "perspiratio insensiblis" for the insensible, or evaporative, water loss that occurs through the skin and lungs.

Increased insensible water loss in feline retrovirus-infected cats

Respiration Physiology, 1995
Feline retroviruses such as feline leukemia virus (FeLV) adversely affect the regulation of many vital host systems such as the immune response, erythropoiesis, and nutrient metabolism. In this paper, we describe the disruption of an additional homeostatic mechanism-evaporative water loss-by FeLV. Viremic cats had greater evaporative water losses (24.0

Insensible Evaporative Water Loss Control by an Australian Arid-Habitat Psittacine, the Mulga Parrot (Psephotellus varius).

Ecological and evolutionary physiology
For terrestrial animals, evaporative water loss (EWL) is a crucial component of osmotic balance and thermoregulation. At high ambient temperatures, augmented EWL for thermoregulation is well recognized, but there is growing evidence that insensible EWL ...

Evaluation of water loss during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.

Perfusion
IntroductionExtracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) can cause blood water loss due to insensible perspiration via oxygenators and plasma leakage. The accurate quantification of water loss is crucial for maintaining fluid balance in patients on ECMO ...

Assessment and Management of Insensible Fluid Loss in Nursing Practice

Saudi Journal of Medicine and Public Health
Background: Water constitutes about 60% of body weight and is vital for homeostasis, nutrient transport, and metabolic processes. Insensible fluid loss—water lost through skin, respiration, and minimal fecal excretion—accounts for 30–50% of daily water ...

Reduction of oxygen consumption, insensible water loss, and radiant heat demand with use of a plastic blanket for low-birth-weight infants under radiant warmers.

Pediatrics, 1984
Eight very low-birth-weight premature infants (mean birth weight 1.11 +/- 0.05 [SEM]kg, mean gestation 30 +/- 1 weeks, and mean age 9 +/- 2 days) were studied under servocontrolled radiant warmers with and without a loosely fitted, transparent, and ...

Insensible Water Losses per Day by Hospitalized Infants and Children

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1955
Water lost insensibly by way of the lungs and skin is an important factor in determining both the body requirement and the body tolerance for water.1Under conditions where homeostatic capacity to vary urine water output is greatly reduced by renal failure, insensible water loss (I. W.

Insensible Water Loss During Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: An In Vitro Study

ASAIO Journal, 2000
To measure insensible fluid loss from silicone membrane oxygenators during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), an in vitro system was used. A standard neonatal ECMO circuit (Avecor) was connected to a noncompliant reservoir, which was then primed with normal saline.
