I can still flip it around and use a stylus to write or just carry it folded back on itself to review labs at bedside and also pull up PACS to show the patient their imaging results. I have switched to a 2-1 laptop that weights about 2 lbs and this thing just works better with epic. It continued at times to freeze or go slow when changing through the different patients or areas of epic. Never found a way for EKG or PACS images to open through the citrix receiver well. It is much slower at responding to commands, much more difficult with entering notes and looking at results. The iPad likely has the capabilities to work flawlessly but due to the limitations of citrix receiver I presume, it just doesn't work well. Ultimately, I am not satisfied with using an iPad as my main way to conduct work and round on patients. Purchased the newest iPad Pro 10.5 inch, had the Logitech slim combo and the citrix mouse. Rounding with the ability to look live at results and vitals pretty much removes any need to use paper which was great. If epic goes to sleep and logs u off and drops you back to just Citrix receiver screen you have to retype in login. On my laptop on hospital network I can walk around and I have no issues with epic staying connected via Citrix app on computer at all.Īnother complaint is the touch login function only works for the first time logging into epic from Citrix. If I stayed in one place then I didn't have any issues, occurred on some floors but stayed consistent on others so more trouble shooting needed. I was on the hospital network and also tried tethering to phone as well and issues still occurred. I have yet to write a full note yet or pend it but will report back.īiggest complaint with the first day was walking around the hospital sometimes while on epic through Citrix app screen would go black and then I would have to close the window and disconnect from epic via Citrix and then log back in. Used with Citrix mouse as well and I did not notice any lag or issues like that. Using Citrix app to access epic on iPad- used the first generation iPad Pro 12.9 inch.
