Rule of 9s Practice for EMTs: Calculating Burn Surface Area
There's a good chance you’ll see a burn question on the NREMT. Even if you don't, the rule of 9s gives EMS providers information that's essential for good decision-making when dealing with burn patients. Timestamps below.

Thank you for this! i kept getting practice test questions wrong bc of misunderstanding the rule and the question. my book was also not clear on sectioning off the torso where the chest and abdomen are calculated separately as 9% chest + 9% abdomen = 18% This video helped a lot as I'm planning to take the NREMT next week!
your nremt videos really helped me pass!! thank y'all!!
