PROCEDURE

Real time 'near remote' guidance of regional blocks

Trainees who are to perform regional blocks will do so under expert guidance via tele-mentoring. This will be done using a novel technology consisting of a wirelessly linked iPad which will display the ultrasound image to the block operator/trainee. This image will be concurrently visualized by an expert mentor through their smartphone, who will then provide feedback/guidance in real-time to the operator/trainee.
