Week 3 Cerebrovascular Symptoms Discussion

I’m working on a health & medical discussion question and need a sample draft to help me learn.

The topic of the post is Cerebrovascular Symptoms which is often the clinical indication or reason sonographers perform cerebrovascular testing such as carotid artery duplex and/or transcranial Doppler testing.

From the list of symptoms below, select two (2) symptoms and do the following:

  • Define the symptom and describe its manifestation by the patient. What is observed by the physician?
  • Which hemisphere is associated with the symptom?
  • What is the likely etiology related to this symptom?

Aphasia Dysphasia Dysarthria Lateralized paresthesia

Hemiparesis Hemiplegia Ataxia Drop attacks

Diplopia Binocular blindness
