Remote display protocols (RDPs) improve healthcare application performance for mobile clinicians. This study found RDPs offer faster speeds and use less bandwidth than traditional web browsers for accessing electronic medical records and image analysis programs.

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Computer Science
  • Network Performance

Background:

  • Healthcare providers require mobile access to dynamic patient information.
  • Remote Display Protocols (RDPs) are emerging solutions for delivering healthcare applications to mobile users.
  • Limited formal evaluation exists for thin-client computing performance in healthcare.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the performance of wireless thin-client tablets using RDPs for healthcare applications.
  • To compare the effectiveness of different RDP implementations against traditional web browsers in a wireless setting.

Main Methods:

  • Assessed performance of wireless thin-client tablets with two web-based clinical applications: an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) and an image analysis program.
  • Compared two popular RDPs (Citrix, Microsoft Remote Desktop) against a standard web browser.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Measured speed and bandwidth utilization in a wireless environment.

    • Main Results:

    • Both RDP implementations demonstrated superior performance compared to the traditional web browser.
    • RDPs offered significantly higher speeds for both the EMR and image analysis applications.
    • Reduced bandwidth requirements were observed when using RDPs for accessing clinical applications.

    Conclusions:

    • RDPs provide a more efficient solution for delivering healthcare applications to mobile clinicians.
    • Thin-client computing via RDPs enhances the performance and reduces network demands for accessing critical health information.
    • Further research into RDP optimization for diverse healthcare applications is warranted.
