Method: an observational study was carried out, descriptive and cross-sectional study of the behavior of some indirect markers of endothelial dysfunction in people admitted to the stroke service of the León Cuervo Rubio Hospital. The universe consisted of 850 patients diagnosed with some type of cerebrovascular disease; the sample consisted of 76 patients admitted for ischemic cerebrovascular disease of an atherothrombotic type confirmed by Computed Axial Tomography. Results: the most affected age group was over 70 years old with 61.9%, the sex that predominated was male with 53.9%, it was observed that arterial hypertension had a higher incidence as a personal pathological antecedent, this entity was present in 76.3% of the cases.
