Tile/AO Classification for Pelvic Ring Fractures

Apply Tile/AO classification (Type A, B, C) for pelvic ring fractures based on stability: A = stable, B = rotationally unstable, C = rotationally and vertically unstable. Guides resuscitation priority, angioembolization, and surgical fixation.

Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Apply Tile/AO classification (Type A, B, C) for pelvic ring fractures based on stability: A = stable, B = rotationally unstable, C = rotationally and vertically unstable. Guides resuscitation priority, angioembolization, and surgical fixation

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Stability: A = stable — The stability: a = stable recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • B = rotationally unstable — The b = rotationally unstable recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • C = rotationally — The c = rotationally recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Vertically unstable — The vertically unstable recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the pelvic fracture tile/ao result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the stability: A = stable, B = rotationally unstable, C = rotationally, vertically unstable for the scenario you are assessing. Apply Tile/AO classification (Type A, B, C) for pelvic ring fractures based on stability: A = stable, B = rotationally unstable, C = rotationally and vertically unstable. Guides resuscitation priority, angioembolization, and surgical fixation. Use the pelvic fracture tile/ao result to inform your calculation.
