Question 1 of 5
A nurse is admitting a client who has sustained severe burn injuries in a grease fire. The nurse shades in a diagram indicating the burned surface areas. Using the Rule of Nines, the nurse should estimate that the client has burned what percentage of body surface area? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth. Use a leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)
Correct Answer: 31.5
Rationale: The anterior chest wall and abdomen accounts for 18%, the left upper limb 9% (4.5% anteriorly and 4.5% posteriorly), and the right upper limb 4.5% (2.25% anteriorly and 2.25% posteriorly). (18+9+4.5) = 31.5%.
