Her data should be protected!

but if it could be anonymized (i.e., the medical data such as blood tests, history of diseases etc disassociated with any names), then wouldn't it make sense to have this data be used for research?

Definitely, still should require IRB approval and careful study design, limited access to only those who need it, etc

Her consent would also be needed.
