Oura ring has two new heart health-tracking features, including cardiovascular age and cardio capacity.
Later this month, the health tech company will roll out Cardiovascular Age and Cardio Capacity to its ring users.
“We’re measuring your pulse wave velocity… which is essentially how fast the blood is traveling to your arteries… and mapping that in terms of the number of years as the age of your vascular system and how does that compare with your chronological age,” Patel said. “Vascular aging arterial stiffness, these have been concepts that have been essentially trapped in the clinical world because they haven’t been very accessible,” Patel said. “We are effectively translating those measurements and enabling an Oura member to make that measurement continuously.”
