A 75-year-old male is brought to the emergency department by their spouse at 8 pm.
The spouse reports that they were cleaning up after dinner at approximately 6:30 pm,
and she noticed that her husband's speech was very unclear. When she asked him
what was going on, he said that he didn't know and that the entire right side of his face
felt numb. She reports that he is very active, but he has a past medical history of atrial
fibrillation. Based upon these symptoms and past medical history, what do you suspect
this patient is experiencing? How would you confirm this diagnosis? What treatment
should be administered? Explain why you chose that treatment. - ansThis patient is
more than likely experiencing an ischemic stroke. A CT scan and MRI would be needed
to determine if a clot was blocking blood flow to the brain tissue and to rule out a
hemorrhagic stroke. If a clot is found, this patient should receive tPA drugs as they are
within the 3-4.5 hour treatment window.

the day), creating a comfortable sleeping environment (optimal room temperature),

A patient reports to the emergency department where you are working at 7 pm. They
