Abstract

Since the COVID-19 pandemic began, our institution, like so many others, has been prioritizing cases and replacing in-person visits with virtual clinic platforms. In the operating room, family presence during induction and the presence of observers has also been restricted. These restrictions have led to challenges for the program described, but have also promoted creative thinking, innovative options and opportunities. In this context, we have modified the protocol, instead utilizing virtual communication with the family, who remain in the waiting area but are able to be involved with the ceremony portion after anesthesia has been safely induced and before the definitive procedure is performed.
