All of the following vascular changes are observed in acute inflammation except_____________?
Correct answer: D. Decreased hydrostatic pressure
- A. Vasodilation
- B. Stasis of blood
- C. Increased vascular permeability
- D. Decreased hydrostatic pressure
Explanation
Acute inflammation produces vasodilatation, increased permeability, and slowing of blood flow with stasis; hydrostatic pressure generally rises initially because of arteriolar dilation. Thus, decreased hydrostatic pressure is the exception.
