SAN DIEGO – Medtrade exhibitor Resmed and ŌURA, maker of a popular smart ring, are partnering to expand access to sleep health education and pathways to care—helping more people sleep better and improve their overall health.
A press release from Resmed reports that use of wearable technology to track sleep is on the rise, increasing from 16% of adults in 20252 to 53% in 2026.3 Insights from wearable devices, including Oura Ring, can help people better understand their sleep patterns and encourage them to have informed conversations with their healthcare providers to learn more about potential sleep disorders, including obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Oura Members who experience a higher number of nighttime breathing disturbances can connect to resources from Resmed. By connecting consumer-generated wellness insights with Resmed’s sleep health resources, Resmed and Oura are helping Oura Members take a more informed next step to better understand their sleep health.
“We’re at an inflection point in how people engage with their sleep health, driven by rising awareness and more accessible technology,” said Dr. Carlos Nunez, chief medical officer at Resmed. “By partnering with ŌURA, we are turning insight into action by guiding people across their sleep health journey and making it easier for them to seek clinical evaluation and care if they have concerns about their sleep.”
“High-quality sleep is one of the strongest foundations for long-term health, yet many people live for years with unrecognized sleep and breathing issues,” said Dr. Ricky Bloomfield, chief medical officer at Oura. “By pairing Oura’s continuous insights into sleep and nighttime breathing with Resmed’s sleep expertise, we’re giving people clearer tools and education to spot when something might be off and to more easily access care so they can understand and act on changes in their sleep health.”
Resmed’s connection with Oura is designed to reach individuals who may not recognize their sleep issues or engage with the healthcare system, making it easier for people to learn about their sleep health and connect with clinical resources when they need it.
