This PEAT (Practice Exam and Assessment Tool) Review – Section 2 for the 2025/2026 NPTE cycle includes over 200 fully solved questions and detailed correct answers, reflecting the latest content blueprint used in the National Physical Therapy Examination (NPTE). Tailored for PT students and candidates preparing for licensure, the guide is designed to improve clinical reasoning, enhance test-taking skills, and reinforce foundational knowledge in physical therapy. Topics covered span across core systems and testing domains, including: Vestibular dysfunction recovery, gaze stability training, and orthostatic hypotension Acid-base balance, respiratory and renal compensations, exercise physiology Gastrointestinal and endocrine changes with aging, esophageal function, and lactase deficiency Neuromuscular system: dermatomes, reflexes, apraxia, coordination, motor control, and spinal disorders (e.g., radiculopathy, tethered cord, Arnold-Chiari) Prosthetics and amputee gait deviations, socket alignment, muscle insufficiency Lymphedema stages (0–3), primary vs secondary lymphedema, and positive Stemmer's sign Multiple sclerosis types, UMN/LMN syndromes, Babinski sign, and Guillain-Barré Integumentary and skin pathologies, psoriasis, stasis dermatitis, and radiation safety Pain types and referral patterns, e.g., vascular, MSK, neurogenic, emotional Special tests: Thomas test, Babinski reflex, gait assessments, cranial nerve integrity Evidence-based practice fundamentals (e.g., cohort studies, case series, RCTs) Biofeedback use, aerobic and aquatic exercise precautions, radiation guidelines, and safe intensity levels for oncology patients This review is ideal for: DPT students preparing for the NPTE International PT graduates seeking U.S. licensure Educators and tutors in physical therapy programs Candidates reviewing specific sections of PEAT or practice-based content All questions are delivered in a Q&A format for easy reading, rapid review, and concept reinforcement—making this guide a powerful tool for mastering both clinical content and exam strategies.

Section 2 2025/2026 Exam Questions
and Answers | 100% Pass



A well studied mechanism for recovery from loss of vestibular function ? - 🧠

ANSWER ✔✔Improve gaze stability


Vigorous exercise does what to the blood? - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Produces

lactic acid that causes a lower PH in blood (acidic)

How does the body compensate for lower blood ph during vigorous

exercise ? - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔An increase in RR helps compensate by

increasing the blood alkalinity

What system is more involved in long term acid-base balance maintenance

? - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔The renal system.

,What system plays an acute role when needing to get PH levels back to

normal ? - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Respiratory system


What happens to lactase level with increase in aging ? - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔It

decreases with age causing an intolerance of dairy products.. common in

small intestine.

What does exercise do to gastrointestinal transit time ? - 🧠 ANSWER

✔✔decreases the time improving overall efficiency of the gastrointestinal

system

Aerobic exercise has been found to improve what gastrointestinal organ ? -

🧠 ANSWER ✔✔overall neuromuscular function of the colon, thus improving

bowel transit time and decrease the risk of constipation

What happens to the upper esophageal sphincter with aging? - 🧠 ANSWER

✔✔strength of esophageal contractions and tension in the upper

esophageal sphincter decrease but movement of food is not impaired


Orthostatic hypotension? - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔-Decrease in blood pressure

related to positional or postural changes from lying to sitting or standing

positions.

, -drop in 20 of SBP and drop of 10 in DBP
