Abu Dhabi Partners with Ultrahuman to Integrate Biological Age Tracking into National Health App

The Abu Dhabi Public Health Centre (ADPHC) has announced a collaboration with wearable technology company Ultrahuman to enhance the capabilities of its national healthcare application, Sahatna. The partnership aims to integrate Ultrahuman’s proprietary algorithms into the app, providing users with detailed insights into their biological age alongside existing features such as genetic records access and telemedicine consultations.

Central to this integration is Ultrahuman’s “Ultra Age” metric, which synthesizes data from sleep patterns, cardiovascular health, and blood markers to calculate a single biological age score. This differs from chronological age by reflecting how lifestyle factors may be influencing the body’s aging process. The ADPHC indicated that the combined model, which merges clinical data with information from consumer wearables, is designed to facilitate earlier medical interventions and support more targeted prevention strategies.

Officials emphasized that the new feature is device-agnostic, meaning residents do not need to purchase an Ultrahuman ring to benefit from the analysis. While smart wearables have historically faced skepticism from medical professionals and regulators, the ADPHC views this shift toward data-driven personalization as a way to help individuals better understand long-term health outcomes.

It remains unclear whether the system will automatically flag individuals for direct medical intervention or if the insights will be presented solely as informational tools for users to manage their own wellness. The move signals a broader trend of government health initiatives embracing consumer technology to deliver personalized public health recommendations.
