The NIHSS (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale) is a standardized tool used to objectively quantify neurological deficits in stroke patients. It supports clinical decision-making, especially in determining eligibility for thrombolytic therapy (e.g., tPA) within the 3–4.5 hour window. It also predicts short- and long-term outcomes but may miss symptoms of vertebrobasilar strokes (e.g., vertigo, nausea, oculomotor signs).
