RICE
Gabe Mirkin
“The four-letter acute-injury protocol that owned sidelines for a generation — and later got argued with.”
Mirkin's 1978 RICE made ice automatic. He later questioned rest and ice. The file keeps it because it named the bout every later protocol (POLICE, PEACE & LOVE) answers.
Opened acute soft-tissue care as an acronym protocol.
- Four-step acute care
- Sideline standard
- The protocol later protocols revise
Rest, ice, compression, elevation.
