This study was conducted to assess changes in health-related quality of life over a 3-year follow-up period in a cohort of 135 opioid dependent patients using the Nottingham Health Profile (NHP) questionnaires. Data obtained at 12 months from 80 patients retained in the programme are presented. In summary, opioid addicts in a methadone maintenance programme for a 12-month period experienced an early and substantial improvement in health-related quality of life. The use of the NHP questionnaire to monitor changes in the subjective health of opioid-dependent patients over time provides new insights in the assessment of treatment effectiveness of methadone maintenance programmes.
本研究旨在使用诺丁汉健康量表（NHP）问卷，评估135名阿片类药物依赖患者队列在3年随访期内与健康相关的生活质量变化。文中呈现了从该项目中保留的80名患者在12个月时获得的数据。总体而言，参加美沙酮维持治疗项目12个月的阿片类药物成瘾者在与健康相关的生活质量方面出现了早期且显著的改善。使用NHP问卷来监测阿片类药物依赖患者随时间推移的主观健康变化，为评估美沙酮维持治疗项目的治疗效果提供了新的见解。
