Epidemiology & indicators

This section turns the entered data into indicators (exposure, incidence, burden) to support prevention and squad monitoring.

Normalization

All indicators are normalized to 1000 hours of activity so they can be compared over time and across groups.

Prerequisite: severity scale​

The module relies on a configurable severity scale based on the number of days unavailable. Common example:

  • 1 to 7 days: minor
  • 7 to 25 days: moderate
  • 25 days or more: severe

Indicator definitions​

Exposure (in hours)​

Total training and match duration. When multiple sources exist, the following priority is applied:

  1. GPS duration
  2. Individually entered duration (for example: load / RPE)
  3. Planned session duration

Incidence (frequency)​

Measures how often injuries occur.

Formula: (Number of injuries / Total exposure) × 1000

Burden (impact)​

Measures the impact of injuries on the squad by including days unavailable.

Formula: (Days unavailable / Total exposure) × 1000

Team-level view​

The indicators make it possible to track:

  • volume (injuries, illnesses, players affected)
  • collective exposure
  • collective incidence
  • collective burden

Player-level view​

The same indicators can also be viewed individually in order to:

  • track the player’s season (history)
  • compare contexts (overall / training / match) depending on your setup
