A 74-year-old male with a history of hypertension and smoking is admitted to the ED for possible ischemic stroke. While eating dinner, the patient’s wife witnessed her husband have a sudden onset of difficulty speaking, left sided facial droop with drooling, and weakness in his left hand. The purpose of this paper is to explore how ischemic stroke can affect the neurological and musculoskeletal systems. Also, the paper will explain the pathophysiology of the patient’s symptoms, the ethnic variables that may impact physiological functioning, and how the process interacts to affect the patient.
