General Knowledge · First Aid & Emergency Care
Statement 1: The RICE protocol (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation) is the universally recommended first-aid for ALL acute sports injuries including fractures, dislocations and open wounds. Statement 2: RICE is specifically indicated for soft tissue injuries (sprains, strains, contusions); fractures require splinting and immobilisation, while open wounds require wound care — RICE alone is insufficient and potentially harmful in these cases.
