Stanford and Duke Universities reportedly will use Apple's HealthKit in medical trials. Doctors at Stanford are working with Apple to let physicians track blood sugar levels for children with diabetes, while Duke is developing a pilot program to track blood pressure, weight and other measurements for patients with cancer or heart disease. The programs will roll out in a few weeks. "Mobile devices can increase healthcare effectiveness and lower healthcare costs," said Ezra Gottheil, a principal analyst at Technology Business Research.Medical Trials to Test Usefulness of Apple's HealthKit
