Oura announced the new Oura Ring 5 on Thursday. The much-anticipated smart ring is smarter and smaller than ever<\/span><\/span>. Among the various new health features<\/span><\/span>, one that stands out is Health Radar. It builds on Oura\u2019s symptom radar, which is known for detecting illness and has identified multiple cases of Lymphoma<\/span><\/span>. Health Radar takes it a step further by continuously tracking your biomarkers, but this time it focuses on two key factors: blood pressure signals and nighttime breathing.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ricky Bloomfield, chief medical officer at Oura, says in a statement that tracking this data also advises the wearer when certain health markers should be addressed. <\/p>\n

\u201c[Health Radar] proactively brings together patterns people would otherwise have to search for — shifts in blood pressure signals that may indicate cardiovascular strain or more frequent breathing disturbances during sleep — so it\u2019s easier to see when something needs attention,\u201d Bloomfield explained.<\/p>\n

Blood pressure often goes undetected until it\u2019s too late, but Oura updated its software to continuously detect any patterns and sudden changes that signal cardiovascular strain. The ring identifies patterns and signals rather than measuring blood pressure like a cuff. If Oura senses inconsistent patterns, it alerts members when their biometric readings indicate elevated blood pressure. If the wearer uses a blood pressure cuff, they can now log readings directly in the Oura App.<\/p>\n

The Oura Ring 5 comes in six different finishes to choose from.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Oura<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Oura can also monitor nighttime blood pressure, which is important because blood pressure tends to drop overnight. If it\u2019s not consistently declining, it can signal potential heart problems that need further assessment. The blood pressure feature will be available to members in the US, India, United Arab Emirates starting in June 2026.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Health Radar also focuses on nighttime breathing. This biometric gives a better explanation of how breathing patterns and sleep can affect your health. It gives the wearer a breakdown of their nightly breathing, with explanations of what breathing changes could indicate, whether their breathing is affecting their sleep and when they should consult with a doctor.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Oura recently partnered with Resmed<\/span><\/span>, a sleep health tech company to provide its subscribers with more sleep education and connect them to doctors, in-person or virtually. These new features show how seriously Oura is taking its health tracking surrounding sleep and how irregular biomarkers can affect it. Now, if an Oura wearer notices that their nighttime breathing requires attention, they can connect with a sleep practitioner through the virtual clinic.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Oura has improved and introduced various new features, including Blood Pressure Signals and Nighttime Breathing.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Oura<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Oura\u2019s main goal with this update is to help provide an action plan with the information the smart ring already collects. Another way Oura is helping people with chronic conditions is by storing their medical history and biometrics in Health Records, making it easier to share their data with eligible providers.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Oura Ring 5 will be available for preorder starting Thursday. It will start shipping on June 4.<\/p>\n
