Improving Healthcare Delivery with
the NComputing’s N-series™
N-series devices enable role-based, secure access for doctors,
nurses and other sta to easily log in to patient records, lab results
and clinical applications, as well as personalized desktops. These
healthcare use cases include:
n Point of care solutions with a combination of xed or roaming
stations
n Improving clinician workows and sta experiences
n Improving medical records security, accuracy and
administration
View PoC applications in xed or roaming locations—N-series
devices are architected to be valuable in a variety of use cases
and locations. Point-of-care applications can include lab order
visualization and results, critical decision support and medical
image viewing, as well as managing and tracking patient status.
Some locations may be xed, either at the patient bedside or
a nurse’s station while others need to be on a mobile cart for
roaming purposes.
With both xed and wireless models available and 4 USB 2.0 ports
for appropriate peripherals such as a USB keyboard and mouse and
proximity card reader, N-series devices are a core part of a medical
infrastructure involving xed stations, mounted access and
mobile carts.

Support any workow, any application—With support for
user authentication and proximity cards within a Citrix session,
N-series devices can support any workow and any medical
application required.
n Shared workstations—Since practitioners are often moving
rapidly through a facility, they need the ability to quickly
update status or place orders from a workstation or medical
cart. With N-series devices as a xed or roaming endpoints
and leveraging Imprivata OneSign Single Sign-On with
authentication and Tap In Tap Out capabilities, users can use
any workstation or mobile cart and log in in seconds rather
than utilize a full PC login/logout sequence, saving hours of
time on a daily basis
n Persistent application session from one station to another—
As medical sta move among N-series-enabled stations,
N-series devices and Citrix infrastructure support session
roaming with persistent access
n High performance for data- and graphics-intensive
applications to support medical imaging—N-series devices
are architected to provide the highest levels of performance
needed for viewing medical imagery and crunching the
largest data sets. This design results in the highest levels of
workow eciency at the point of care for even the most
demanding visual applications
