A virtual ward round was first conducted remotely by a specialist who received real-time audiovisual information from a resident wearing smart glasses integrated with telemedicine. Conclusions Virtual ward rounds using telemedicine via smart glasses on neurosurgical patients in critical care were feasible, effective and widely accepted as an alternative to physical ward rounds during the COVID-19 pandemic. By using the smart glasses, specialists monitoring the ward rounds were able to direct residents and junior staff members through the routine daily review of patients requiring critical care. ./cache/cord-266764-q2vtrs95.txt ./txt/cord-266764-q2vtrs95.txt
