Answer 1

The "rule of nines" is a method used to estimate the total body surface area (TBSA) affected by burns in an adult patient. It divides the body into sections, each representing approximately 9% (or multiples thereof) of the TBSA.Here are the percentages for each section according to the rule of nines:- **Head and neck:** 9%- **Posterior trunk:** 18%- **Anterior trunk:** 18%- **Each upper extremity:** 9% (4.5% for the front and 4.5% for the back)- **Each lower extremity:** 18% (9% for the front and 9% for the back)- **Groin area:** 1%So, filling in the blanks:- Head and neck: 9%- Posterior trunk: 18%- Anterior trunk: 18%- Each upper extremity: 9%- Each lower extremity: 18%- Groin area: 1%
