At the venous end of the capillary, net osmotic pressure exceeds hydrostatic pressure. by 8 (25 minus 17) mmHg. This can be described either as a net filtration pressure of. -8 mmHg, or as a net absorption pressure of +8 mmHg. Either way, there is a. tendency for fluid to re-enter the capillary at its venous end. This amounts to a net. reabsorption rate of 12 ml/min across all capillary beds. It will be evident that net filtration at the arterial end and net reabsorption at the. venous end of the capillary do not quite balance.
Even more specifically, the pressure exerted by blood against the wall of a capillary is called capillary hydrostatic pressure (CHP) and is the same as capillary blood pressure. CHP is the force that drives fluid out of capillaries and into the tissues. As fluid exits a capillary and moves into tissues, the hydrostatic pressure in the interstitial fluid correspondingly rises. This opposing hydrostatic pressure is called the interstitial fluid hydrostatic pressure (IFHP).
