Wallace's Rule of Nines is a clinical method used by healthcare professionals to estimate the total body surface area (TBSA) affected by burns. This rule is particularly helpful in the initial assessment of burn victims, guiding treatment decisions such as fluid resuscitation. The Rule of Nines divides the body into sections, each representing approximately 9% (or a multiple thereof) of the total body surface area. These sections are as follows:

Head and neck: 9% of the TBSA
Each arm: 9% of the TBSA
Each leg: 18% of the TBSA (9% for the front and 9% for the back)
Front of the torso: 18% of the TBSA
Back of the torso: 18% of the TBSA
Perineum (genital area): 1% of the TBSA
