The University of Miami has integrated Kitman Labs’ Performance Medicine solution to enable its athletes with a deeper understanding of their medical health and performance.
Spread across all 18 men’s and women’s sports programs, the Performance Medicine is one of four Solutions in Kitman Labs’ advanced operating system, the Intelligence Platform.
By deploying the Performance Medicine solution across the athletic department, the University of Miami will be able to unify all its medical data and workflows in a singular operating system – powering data-led, evidence-based decision-making related to student-athlete care, informing strategies to support student-athlete performance and health as well as injury and reinjury reduction and treatment across every sport.
Rachelle Paul, Deputy Athletic Director/Senior Woman Administrator, University of Miami, said: “In fully researching Kitman Labs we found that by deploying Performance Medicine across all teams, we not only ensure that our medical staff has the tooling and resources necessary to consistently capture complete and accurate medical data but also the advanced analytics capabilities to generate the insights and actionable intelligence to inform best-in-class player care. We look forward to partnering with them.”
Furthermore, the seamless automation within the platform will also help to drive overall efficiencies across each department and enable practitioners to spend more time with athletes and less time on data collection, information processing and analysis.
Kitman Labs established a track record of working with top US universities, governing bodies, leagues, teams and athletes across a variety of sports.
The company’s technology has been used by US leagues and teams including the National Football League (NFL), National Basketball Association (NBA), Major League Soccer (MLS), National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) and National Collegiate Athletics Association (NCAA).
Stephen Smith, CEO and Founder of Kitman Labs, added: “There are many challenges associated with a multi-sport collegiate environment – the volume and diversity of sports, the number of stakeholders and practitioners across athletic departments, the directive to provide holistic student-athlete care, the need to support data integrity and mobility within a dynamic student and administrative marketplace and the list goes on. “By deploying Performance Medicine department-wide, the University of Miami is providing a seamless and shared data and analytics infrastructure capable of supporting the needs of myriad internal clients today with the ability to scale and innovate based on the demands of the market tomorrow.”
