Found this on a LinkedIn conversation. The website mentions that this could be used for EMRs. This is the description below.

The heart of the Pano System is the Pano Zero Client, a whole new class of desktop computing hardware. Pano endpoints are referred to as "zero clients" because, unlike traditional thin clients, they have no CPU, no memory, no operating system, no drivers, no software and no moving parts.
They simply serve to connect peripheral input-output devices – a keyboard, mouse, VGA display, and audio output – along with other USB peripherals to a virtualized Microsoft Windows desktop virtual machine running on a hypervisor server in your data center.
Pano Zero Clients not only help you cut the costs of hardware and IT support - they also conserve electricity, using as little as 5% of the energy consumed by even an EnergyStar certified desktop PC.
Connecting using the purpose-built Pano Direct Protocol over standard UDP protocols on your Ethernet LAN, Pano Zero Clients also leverage your DHCP and Directory Services servers, making it easy to integrate them into your existing LAN and security management infrastructure.
Pano Zero Clients are also stateless – in other words, they do not store anything at all about the user, the desktop virtual machine, or any data used by it. This provides both enhanced data security, since they never contain data that might be lost or stolen, and productivity benefits. It saves you time shutting down and booting up, and you can immediately resume work with the same set of open applications and files – for example when moving from your office to a conference room to make a presentation or when finishing up work at home in the evening.
The clean and functional design of the Pano was created by Whipsaw, one of the world's leading industrial design firms, helping it fit into modern office and public environments unlike bulky PCs.
