Σύνοψη	The Mini-Balance Evaluation Systems Test (Mini-BESTest) is a brief performance-based measure of balance impairment designed to identify the underlying sensory, motor, and cognitive contributions to balance deficits. Developed by Franchignoni and colleagues in 2010 as a shortened version of the comprehensive BESTest, Mini-BESTest is ideal for clinical use, assessing balance function in 10–15 minutes and helping guide targeted rehabilitation.	The NIHSS is the standard acute stroke severity assessment tool used in emergency departments, stroke centers, and clinical trials worldwide. Developed by the NIH Stroke Study Group in 1989, the 15-item scale provides rapid, reproducible quantification of acute neurological deficit from ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke. NIHSS scores inform thrombolytic and thrombectomy eligibility, predict outcomes, and serve as primary endpoint in stroke intervention trials.
