We propose that training in both wide awake local anaesthesia no tourniquet (WALANT) as well as ultrasound guided blocks should be incorporated into plastic surgery training or at the very least in to the hand surgery subspecialty curriculum to help overcome such a problem in the future. We therefore propose that WALANT should be incorporated into plastic surgery training curriculum. We recognise that it might not be an approach favoured by all once the pandemic is over however, increasing the variety of skills taught to future plastic surgeons should be encouraged. Furthermore, the Hand Diploma or subspecialty interest in hand surgery curriculum could include training on regional ultrasound guided blocks.
