Assessing athlete injuries
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for assessing an injury to an athlete, the method comprising:
- receiving historical data associated with the athlete;
receiving performance data from a functional assessment of the athlete wherein the functional assessment is designed based on at least one of a sport of the athlete, a position of the athlete, or the injury of the athlete;
querying a data source for mined data associated with injuries similar to the injury being assessed;
receiving the mined data as predictive data relevant to the injury; and
analyzing at least one of the historical data, the performance data, the mined data, or the predictive data to produce a predictive analysis associated with the athlete.

Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer program products assess injuries to elite athletes. A method involves receiving historical data associated with the athlete and receiving performance data from a functional assessment of the athlete. The functional assessment is designed based on a sport, a position, and/or the injury of the athlete. The method also involves querying a data source for mined data associated with athlete injuries similar to the injury being assessed, generating predictive data relevant to the injury, and analyzing the historical data, the performance data, the mined data, and/or the predictive data to produce a predictive analysis associated with the athlete.

11. A computer program product comprising a computer-readable medium having control logic stored therein for causing a computer to assess an injury to an athlete, the control logic comprising computer-readable program code for causing the computer to:
-
receive historical data associated with the athlete;
receive performance data from a functional assessment of the athlete wherein the functional assessment is designed based on at least one of a 3 port of the athlete, a position of the athlete, or the injury of the athlete;
query a data source for mined data associated with injuries similar to the injury being assessed;
receive the mined data as predictive data relevant to the injury and the athlete; and
analyze at least one of the historical data, the performance data, the mined data, or the predictive data to produce a predictive analysis associated with the athlete. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A system for assessing an injury to an athlete, the system comprising:
-
a computer operative to;
receive historical data associated with the athlete;
receive performance data from a functional assessment of the athlete wherein the functional assessment is designed based on at least one of a sport of the athlete, a position of the athlete, or the injury of the athlete;
query a data source for mined data associated with injuries similar to the injury being assessed;
receive the mined data as predictive data relevant to the injury and the athlete; and
analyze at least one of the historical data, the performance data, the mined data, or the predictive data to produce a predictive analysis associated with the athlete; and
a second computer operative to generate the data source containing mined data associated with a plurality of injuries and athletes prior to the computer querying the data source for mined data. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)

21. A business method for assessing an injury to an athlete, the method comprising:
-
gathering medical history and information associated with the athlete to be assessed;
designing and conducting a functional evaluation of the athlete;
conducting an independent orthopedic evaluation of the athlete by a certified a assessor; and
mining data associated with athlete injuries similar to the injury of the athlete;
querying the mined data to make predictions about the injury of the athlete; and
providing the orthopedic and functional evaluation based on a position, a sport, and/or injury of the athlete; and
analyzing the medical history and information, the functional evaluation, the orthopedic evaluation, the mined data based on the position, the sport, and/or the injury of the athlete therein making predictions regarding the injury or the athlete.
