Experience the Quality With Free NPTE Exam Questions That Helps Candidates Pass

McMurray’s test reproduces locking/clicking, specific for meniscus tears. Lachman (A) and anterior drawer (C) test ACL. Valgus stress (D) tests MCL.

On NPTE, knowing which test assesses which structure is a frequent musculoskeletal exam focus.

Oxygen saturation <88–90% is unsafe. The correct response is to stop activity and provide supplemental oxygen if prescribed. Lower intensity (A) is unsafe at this level. Trendelenburg (C) worsens breathing. Shallow breathing (D) increases CO₂ retention.

On NPTE, therapists must act quickly when patients fall below safe O₂ thresholds.

Stage IV pressure injuries involve full-thickness skin and tissue loss with exposed bone, tendon, or muscle. Stage II (A) involves partial-thickness skin loss. Stage III (B) involves full-thickness loss but without bone exposure. Unstageable (D) applies when necrotic tissue obscures wound depth.

NPTE integumentary questions often test wound staging. Correct staging guides treatment and prognosis. Stage IV requires aggressive wound management, infection prevention, and often surgical consultation.

At C5, patients have partial deltoid and biceps but lack wrist extensors, making manual wheelchair propulsion inefficient. They require a power wheelchair with sip-and-puff or head control. Joystick (C) requires wrist/hand control, which is absent. Manual rims (A, B) are not functional.

On NPTE, SCI wheelchair prescription by neurological level is heavily tested. Knowing which controls correspond to functional levels ensures safe independence planning.

Crohn’s commonly affects the terminal ileum, the site of B12 absorption. This leads to megaloblastic anemia. Vitamin K (B) and D (C) deficiencies occur in liver/biliary disease. Vitamin C (D) deficiency = scurvy.

On NPTE, Crohn’s and UC must be differentiated based on location and systemic effects.
