In women, premature delivery, insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM),4 obesity, Cesarean section and endocrine disturbances can either delay or suppress lactogenesis II and affect the successful establishment of lactation (18).
third spacing is a shift of fluid into the interstitial spaces--where there is little fluid normally perfusing. this patient differs from the pt with generalized edema because the third spacing is just that... all the fluid has shifted from the other compartments and although they look all puffy and full of fluid, they are actually hypovolemic.
If the viscosity of a fluid is a function of shear stress (or, equivalently, of shear rate), such a fluid is called non-Newtonian fluid. 1  Non-Newtonian fluids can be classified into three general categories: 2  Fluid properties are independent of duration of shear. 3  Fluid properties are dependent on duration of shear.
