Scripture of The Day - St. John 14:6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Escritura del día - San Juan 14,6
Jesús le dijo: Yo soy el camino, y la verdad, y la vida; nadie viene al Padre, sino por mí.

Jesus spricht zu ihm: Ich bin der Weg und die Wahrheit und das Leben; niemand kommt zum Vater, denn durch mich!
What are the EMS Mnemonics?
EMS mnemonics were created primarily to help emergency medical technician (EMT) students remember information. EMS training in the United States is extremely demanding, partly because there is so much information to learn and retain. Some of the mnemonics are very helpful because they are frequently used. As a general rule, however, EMS mnemonics are not very helpful for remembering things. Once you introduce so many mnemonics, it becomes more and more difficult to remember the mnemonic itself.
Frequently Used EMS Mnemonics
Among the most frequently used mnemonics are:
1. SAMPLE
2. OPQRST
3. DCAP-BTLS
4. RICE
5. RICES
SAMPLE is:
S - signs and Symptoms
A - allergies
M - medications
P - pertinent past medical history
L - last oral intake
E - events leading to the injury or illness
SAMPLE helps the EMT student to remember the key information that needs to be gathered for patient care. This information is also passed on to the health care providers to whom patient care will be transferred. SAMPLE is one of the most popular EMS mnemonics
OPQRST is:
O - onset
P - provocation/palliation
Q - quality of pain
R - radiation/referred pain
S - severity of pain/discomfort
T - time
The use of OPQRST is explained in our article dedicated to this mnemonic. Please see link at end of article.
DCAP-BTLS is:
D - deformities
C - contusions
A - abrasions
P - puncture/penetrating wounds, paradoxical motion
B - burns
T - tenderness
L - lacerations
S - swelling
DCAP-BTLS is used to help you to remember what to look for when inspecting and palpating regions of the body.
RICE is:
R - rest
I - ice
C - compression
E - elevation
RICE can be employed to help you to remember treatment you might need to carry out for fractures, sprains, and strains. The mnemonic RICES is the same as RICE except that the "S" refers to splinting. RICES is used to help remind you of actions to take to treat closed, soft-tissue injuries.
These EMS mnemonics won't make sense to someone who is not an EMT student or someone who does not study the things that EMS students study.
