Σύνοψη	The Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II score, introduced by Knaus et al. in 1985, is a 71-point severity of illness classification system for critically ill patients. It combines acute physiological parameters, age, and chronic health status to predict intensive care unit (ICU) mortality, facilitating patient risk stratification and research standardization.	The Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS), introduced by Subbe et al. in 2001, is a 14-point alert system designed for rapid detection of clinical deterioration in hospitalized patients. It combines six vital sign and laboratory parameters to identify patients at high risk of rapid decline, enabling early intervention before critical events occur.	The Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, introduced by Vincent and Moreno in 1996, is a 24-point daily assessment tool that quantifies organ dysfunction across six physiological systems in critically ill patients. It was adopted into the 2016 Sepsis-3 definitions and is now the international standard for identifying and grading sepsis-related organ failure.
