Abstract
With our hand team scattered across several different locations, it is difficult to find a time to get together for our weekly didactic hand conference and monthly hand journal club. In addition, traffic and tight clinical schedules sometimes force conferences to start late or be canceled. Our solution was to set up an on-line conference. Using TeamViewer to host our conference and Skype to host our journal clubs, we experienced increased attendance by both faculty and residents in our meetings. In this article, we establish a method of hosting effective on-line videoconferences to facilitate nearly universal participation of our hand team, and we hope to assist others who wish to establish similar setups in their communities.
