Abstract

There is many prevalence in the high risk of ankle sprain syndrome to happen on us. This happen because of the overstretched ligament that occur in our ankle. Yet, RICE treatment method is the simplest way to recover this crucial injury and its only takes 2 weeks for this treatment phase. Rest, ice, compression and elevation is the initial treatment for any grades of ankle sprain. In order to present comprehensive management strategies, evaluating on literature data that consist of previous research and internet data on RICE treatment for ankle sprain had been done. Every word for this treatment have their own function and criteria that need to have in the product for the patient to use it. However, RICE product in the market now sold separately that we can find it at the pharmacy and sports store. The purpose of this project is to develop RICE treatment method towards ankle sprain syndrome by facilitate this current market product into a simple function. Collection of literature data and primary data will give conceptual ideas for this new product development. PUGH selection method is the best way to finalize the desired conceptual ideas for this product. Development phase using SolidWorks software and additive manufacturing is done to produce prototype to test on the patient. Comparing results using imaging test and hand press will be the approach in the objective for this project. Other than that, usability testing will use towards this product for selected patient. This new product will facilitate the patient to use it as their home treatment and reduce recovery time for this ankle sprain syndrome.
