Executive Summary

ANALYST: COI RESEARCH

To restart the season during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the league offered smart rings to players and staff within the isolation 'Bubble'. The rings tracked temperature trends, Heart Rate Variability (HRV), and respiratory rate, providing an 'Illness Probability Score' to identify potential infections days before symptoms appeared.

rate_review Analyst Verdict

"A successful large-scale bio-surveillance pilot. It demonstrated the utility of wearables for workforce health protection. While participation was voluntary (privacy concerns), the data helped maintain the integrity of the Bubble, resulting in zero positive cases during the season restart."

warning The Challenge

Restarting the league required strict infection control. PCR tests had a lag time. The medical team needed a way to detect physiological signs of infection (fever, stress) in real-time to isolate individuals before they became contagious spreaders.

psychology The Solution

Players wore the Oura Ring 2. The data was synced to a dedicated team dashboard (anonymized/permissioned). Algorithms flagged deviations from the player's personal baseline (e.g., spike in body temp + drop in HRV) as an 'Risk Alert' for further testing.
