Perspiratio insensibilis (insensible perspiration, insensible water loss, IWL) is the patient's unperceived fluid loss. It is mainly evaporation of water from the airways and evaporation of water through the skin.
What is 'insensible' water loss? This term refers to water loss due to: Transepidermal diffusion: water that passes through the skin and is lost by evaporation, and; Evaporative water loss from the respiratory tract; It is termed insensible as we are not aware of it.
25 lip 2023 · Insensible fluid loss is the amount of body fluid lost daily that is not easily measured, from the respiratory system, skin, and water in the excreted stool. The exact amount is unmeasurable but is estimated to be between 40 to 800mL/day in the average adult without comorbidities. [2]
