transudation

In grave cases also extravasation of blood in minute points or transudation of its coloring matter is apt to occur in portions of the surface, when of course decolorization is not fully produced by pressure.

Three hours later convulsions and heavy transudation set in.

There are, however, some cases, especially those with transudations, when digitalis may be carefully tried even though high tension be present.

The membrane from which the dropsical fluid escapes is healthy, or at least not inflamed, and only somewhat sodden by long contact with the fluid—the morbid condition on which the transudation depends lying elsewhere.

Over and above what has been mentioned, thermal effects have been attributed to the vital activity of the leaves in the transudation of water, and even to the respiration and circulation of living wood.
