Fluids within the body are contained in two basic compartments, intracellular and extracellular. Cell membranes and capillary walls separate the two fluid compartments. See Two basic fluid compartments.
The intracellular fluid compartment, which consists of fluid contained within all of our body cells, is the larger of the two compartments. The extracellular fluid compartment contains all the fluids outside the cells and is further divided into two major subcomponents: intravascular fluidcontained in blood vessels and interstitial fluid found in the tissue spaces. The intracellular, intravascular, and interstitial spaces are the major fluid compartments in the body.
A third category of the extracellular fluid compartment is the transcellular compartment, which includes cerebrospinal fluid and fluid contained in body spaces such as the pleural cavity and joint spaces. Because transcellular fluids don't normally contribute significantly to fluid balance, they're beyond the scope of this article.
