Question

Put the steps in correct order to trace an embolic stroke.

1 Plaque or clot breaks from the wall of the heart or carotid artery.

2.Embolus passes through the carotid artery into the brain.

3.Inflammatory process begins to help the body dissolve the clot, leading to edema in the area.

4. Lack of blood flow to the tissue served by the arteriole results in hypoxia and eventual cell death.

5.Dead neurons no longer fire, resulting in weakness and or paralysis.

6.Edema causes increase in local pressure and even more nerve damage.
