Point of care ultrasound is important to the specialty of physical medicine and rehabilitation (PM&R) to aid in the diagnosis and treatment of a variety of neuromusculoskeletal conditions commonly seen in practice. However, across Canada, resident education of sonoanatomy skills is variable. There remain no standards in terms of how ultrasound is taught as part of the residency curriculum as set by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada. As such, residents are often required to find their own educational opportunities. This report describes an alternative approach to learning these skills that was inspired by disruption due to coronavirus disease 2019 in first year residency. This report explores how a PM&R resident was able to develop valuable ultrasound skills from home using not only textbooks and videos, but also new and novel teleguidance technology, namely an ultrasound probe that connects to a clinician's own smart devices to display images.
