Sample Bahrain NHRA Physiotherapist Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to review concepts for the Bahrain NHRA Physiotherapist exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1Before starting a first physiotherapy session, which identification step is safest?
A.Match two approved patient identifiers to the referral or chart
B.Use the room number because it is visible
C.Begin treatment if the patient responds to any name
D.Ask a visitor to confirm without checking the record
Explanation: Using two approved identifiers matched to the clinical record reduces wrong-patient treatment and documentation errors.
2Which action is most appropriate before and after hands-on patient contact?
A.Perform hand hygiene according to facility policy
B.Wear the same gloves for every patient
C.Clean hands only at the end of the workday
D.Use gloves instead of hand hygiene in all situations
Explanation: Hand hygiene before and after patient contact is a core infection-prevention step in rehabilitation settings.
3In the first 24 to 48 hours after an uncomplicated ankle sprain, which plan is most appropriate?
A.Protect the ankle, manage swelling, and introduce pain-limited movement
B.Apply aggressive end-range stretching until swelling resolves
C.Immobilize permanently and avoid all loading for months
D.Use high-velocity manipulation as the first intervention
Explanation: Early protection, swelling control, education, and pain-limited movement support tissue healing while limiting stiffness and deconditioning.
4During active shoulder abduction, which accessory motion of the humeral head helps preserve subacromial space?
A.Inferior glide with superior roll
B.Superior glide with superior roll
C.Anterior glide as the only motion
D.No glide because the joint only spins
Explanation: The convex humeral head rolls superiorly and glides inferiorly on the concave glenoid during abduction. Adequate inferior glide helps limit superior translation under the acromion.
5A patient stands on the right leg and the left side of the pelvis drops. Which muscle group is most likely weak?
A.Left hip abductors
B.Right hip abductors
C.Right ankle dorsiflexors
D.Left knee flexors
Explanation: The stance-side hip abductors keep the pelvis level during single-leg stance. Pelvic drop on the left while standing on the right points to weakness or poor control of the right gluteus medius and minimus.
6A patient suddenly develops facial droop, arm weakness, and slurred speech during outpatient therapy. What should the physiotherapist do first?
A.Stop treatment and activate emergency medical response
B.Continue gentle exercises to see if symptoms improve
C.Schedule routine follow-up with the referring physician
D.Give neck stretches for presumed muscle tightness
Explanation: Sudden facial droop, arm weakness, and speech change are possible stroke signs and require immediate emergency escalation.
7Which gait pattern is commonly seen after a stroke with right hemiparesis?
A.Circumduction or hip hiking of the right leg during swing
B.Equal step length with no compensations
C.Left foot drop only with normal right limb control
D.Pure ataxia without weakness or tone changes
Explanation: Weakness, poor selective control, and increased extensor tone after stroke can produce circumduction or hip hiking of the affected limb during swing.
8During walking practice, a patient's SpO2 falls from 96% to 82% with marked breathlessness. What is the safest immediate response?
A.Stop the activity, position the patient safely, monitor, and escalate according to policy
B.Increase walking speed to improve conditioning
C.Ignore the value if the patient wants to continue
D.Remove monitoring and finish the planned session
Explanation: A large oxygen desaturation with symptoms requires stopping activity, safety positioning, reassessment, and escalation based on facility policy and clinical status.
9Which breathing technique is commonly taught to a patient with COPD to reduce dynamic airway collapse during exertion?
A.Pursed-lip breathing
B.Breath holding during transfers
C.Rapid shallow breathing
D.Valsalva maneuver during walking
Explanation: Pursed-lip breathing creates slight positive expiratory pressure, slows expiration, and can reduce dyspnea in many patients with COPD.
10Which gross motor skill is typically expected before independent sitting in an infant?
A.Head control in supported positions
B.Independent running
C.Mature handwriting
D.Single-leg hopping
Explanation: Head control is an early developmental foundation for later trunk control and independent sitting.

About the Bahrain NHRA Physiotherapist Exam

The Bahrain NHRA Physiotherapist licensure pathway is managed by the National Health Regulatory Authority. NHRA states that professionals must submit a complete license application through the online system before appearing for the licensure examination; once approved, an eligibility code is generated for Prometric registration. The NHRA Licensure Examination guide lists Physiotherapist among professions required to go through licensure examinations and states a 50% pass mark for nursing, midwifery, and allied professions. Reviewed NHRA public sources did not publish a physiotherapist-specific item count, exam duration, fee, or candidate pass rate. This practice bank covers musculoskeletal rehabilitation, neurological rehabilitation, cardiopulmonary care, pediatrics, geriatrics, exercise prescription, modalities, red flags, patient safety, infection control, ethics, documentation, and Bahrain NHRA licensing facts.
