This document contains over 25 multiple-choice questions with 100% verified correct answers from Week 2 of the NR 509 Advanced Physical Assessment course at Chamberlain University, designed for the 2025/2026 academic year. It serves as a high-yield review tool for nurse practitioner and advanced nursing students focusing on the head, eyes, ears, nose, and throat (HEENT) systems, as well as foundational neurological and respiratory assessment principles. Topics include cranial nerve evaluation (e.g., trigeminal, facial, accessory), thyroid and lymph node palpation, normal and abnormal eye examination findings (Snellen chart interpretation, corneal light reflex, ptosis, scleral pigmentation), sinus palpation, oral assessments across diverse populations, and tactile fremitus. It also includes expected physiological changes during pregnancy, such as gingival bleeding, and common pediatric considerations like fontanelle assessment. Each question is scenario-based and reflects real clinical reasoning aligned with NP certification exam standards. This makes the material valuable not only for classroom testing but also for board prep and clinical competency evaluation. Best suited for: Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) students Adult-Gerontology Primary Care NP (AGNP) students MSN/BSN students in health assessment courses AANP and ANCC certification exam candidates Students reviewing HEENT systems, vision testing, and sinus/neck exams Ideal for exam prep, study group sessions, and clinical simulation reviews.
