The ankle-brachial index (ABI) = ankle systolic pressure ÷ brachial systolic pressure. 🔹 ABI < 0.90 = abnormal 🔹 0.41–0.90 = mild to moderate PAD 🔹 0.00–0.40 = severe PAD ~90% sensitivity for diagnosing peripheral vascular disease (PVD).

🔥 Burns: Rule of Nines 🔥 A quick way to estimate the Total Body Surface Area (TBSA) affected by burns. • Head & Neck = 9% • Each Arm = 9% • Each Leg = 18% • Front Trunk = 18% • Back Trunk = 18% • Perineum = 1% ⚠️ Burns >20% TBSA = major burns → seek urgent medical
