PREDICTING AND MITIGATING ATHLETE INJURY RISK

摘要

The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for predicting and mitigating athlete injury risk. In general, performance parameter data for athletes can be captured and maintained over time. The performance parameter data can be utilized in at least two different ways. In one aspect, performance parameter data is utilized to detect athletes at increased risk for injury and/or indicate why athletes are at increased risk for injury. In another aspect, performance parameter data is utilized to recommend activities (e.g., training sessions) for athletes that are injured or at increased risk for injury. The recommended activities can reduce athlete injury risk while also minimizing reduction in athlete workload. Recommended activities can be tailored based on injury type, injury severity, risk type, risk level, competition schedule, etc.
