Colloid osmotic pressure acts as an oncotic force that helps retain fluid within blood vessels by counterbalancing capillary hydrostatic pressure, as described by the Starling principle.

The analysis

The claim is a fundamental physiological principle (part of the Starling equation) supported extensively in the literature where hydrostatic and colloid osmotic pressures interact to govern transvascular fluid exchange.
