Maha Lakshmi: NIHSS as a Cornerstone of Acute Stroke Evaluation and Monitoring
Maha Lakshmi, Clinical Pharmacy Specialist at Apollo Hospitals, shared on LinkedIn:
”The NIHSS is one of the most widely used standardized tools for assessing neurological impairment in patients with suspected acute stroke.
It enables clinicians to quantify stroke severity, communicate findings consistently, monitor changes over time, and support timely treatment decisions.
I created this concise reference as part of my continuous learning in clinical pharmacy and evidence-based patient care.
I hope it serves as a useful refresher for fellow healthcare professionals and students.
Early assessment. Standardized care. Better outcomes.”
