Method evidence record

Nottingham Health Profile

The Nottingham Health Profile (NHP) is a perceived health status measure developed by Hunt and colleagues at the University of Nottingham in 1981. It measures subjective well-being across six dimensions: physical mobility, pain, sleep, emotional reactions, social isolation, and energy level. The NHP emphasizes the patient's experience of health problems rather than objective clinical measures.
