Rule of 9
 |
RULE OF NINE |
|
Not only the depth but also the extent of burns is of paramount importance. In case of burn on an important part of the body, the casualty goes through a critical phase due to the important loss of fluid.
The extent of the burn is easy to identify with the "rule of 9" of Wallace. The body is divided into zones of 9% or a multiple of 9 compared to the total area of the body. |
