Distribution of Ringer solution. Simulation of the distribution of an infusion of 1,575 mL of Ringer’s solution at a constant rate over 30 min. Vc = red line, the plasma compartment. Vt1 = green line, the fast-exchange interstitial compartment, and Vt2 = blue line, the slow-exchange interstitial compartment. The urine output is not shown. The graph is based on all 160 experiments. The separation between awake and anesthetized participants necessitated a correction of k10 for the effect of general anesthesia per se and of different MAPs, which was 92 mmHg for awake volunteers (N = 106), 75 mmHg for anesthetized patients (N = 54), and an overall mean of 82 mmHg
