Private Question #2: In slide 32, the heading says "Intracellular Fluid Volume Excess (Edema)." Should this not be "Interstitial Fluid Volume Excess (Edema)" since interstitial fluid is not intracellular fluid?

Yes, this is a typographical error. Thank you for the catch! Previous slides indicate interstitial fluid volume excess. Interstitital fluid excess is more common for the template cases discussed in the slides.
