A new “emergency calling” feature will also be a big differentiation for wellness buyers. This lets the LTE Apple Watch 5 versions automatically call emergency services if the wearables ECG (electrocardiogram) heart rate monitor or fall detection service sense the wearer is in danger, even when it’s not connected to an iPhone.

So, the new watch (5) can, and the old watch (4) couldn't. At least that's what I get out of this article.
Found this when I was looking for a list of differences between the 4 & 5 series.
