Spanish term

NP

Spanish to English Medical Medical (general) Abbreviation in physical examination
This is from a physical examination of an infant in a hospital in Galicia, Spain. The sentence is, "BEG: NH, NP." Some of the report is in Galician, but this part is Castilian Spanish. I understand Good general condition, normal hydration, but I'm drawing a complete blank on NP- normal ? Can anybody shed any light on this?

Thanks for letting us know anyway, Louise.

I found it myself, and it's not what we thought. I found the term spelled out, buried near the end of the document. It's "Normal Perfundicion". The phrase NH, NP is "normal hydration, normal perfusion!"
Anne Louise (asker) Jan 19, 2017:
Hmm, that sounds very plausible. Especially since the same physician writes normotensive. Likes to combine normo- with another adjective.

normoponderal / normal weight / healthy weight

Complete guess, as there are many entries for NP on Cosnautas, but this one stands out to me:

NP >
39 normoponderal
