NPTE Practice Test 1 Review 2023/ 54
Questions and Answers/ Verified.
Hypothyroidism s/s - -Myalgia, proximal muscle weakness, joint stiffness, increased
DTR
-Initial POC following superficial partial thickness burn. Of 26% body - -Maintain
ROM, then progress return to functional tasks
-Extra-articulate complications of rheumatoid arthritis - -Vasculitis
Psoriatic arthritis; complications may include psoriatic skin/nail changes ,
conjunctivitis, and iritis
-Diagnosis of metabolic syndrome - -Waist circumference (>40in men, >35in women)
HDL <40
Triglycerides >150
Fasting BG >110
-Significant R scoliosis clinical picture - -R convexity
R more normal aeration and rib elevation
L compression w/ shortened intercoastals and decreased breath sounds
-Mobilization for decreased shoulder elevation and ER - -Anterior glide: prioritize bc
ER is necessary for end of elevation (codemans principal)
Interior glide for ABD
-Indications for refer to radiology following acute ankle sprain - -Tenderness to
palpating of posterior tip of medial or lateral maleoli
And inability to bear weight immediately or in ED
, -Law on providing medical records to patinet - -Pt has right to all notes (diagnosis,
treatment, prognosis) and test results.
A PTA must produce all documentation if requested and doesn't not need to contact the
PT or MD to disclose their notes
-Interventions for acute atelecits is following MVA - -1. Pain management
2. Incentive spirometers
3. Segmental breathing: inspiratory hold facilities collateral circulation
NOT paced breathing which focuses on rate, note depth
-Pat interventions 72h after finger flexor tendon repair - -Wait 48-72h before initiating
therapy to allow tendon to adhere
72h active extension and passive flextime starting with MCP held in flextime, moving
PIP
No active fleet ion for 3 weeks
-Metabolic abnormalities associated with adrenal insufficiency - -Hyponatremia
Hyperkalemia
Hypoglycemia
Acidosis
Decrease in cortisol leads to inability to regulate Na and K balance
-In which joints does arthritis from stage 3 Lymes disease typically manifest - -Large
joints like the knees
-Abnormal heart sound of low frequency turbulence during early diastole - -S3: low
frequency sound heard early diastole dt poor ventricular compliance
S4: low freq sound heard late diastole dt exaggerated atrial contraction -> turbulance
heart murmur; swishing sound in systole, diastole, or both
Pericardial friction rub; leathery sound heard during systole
