Despite formal ultrasound training becoming prevalent in preclinical medical student education, significant barriers remain to the continuation of this training during clinical years. We sought to develop a program for third-year medical students to continue ultrasound training after an already robust preclinical ultrasound curriculum and evaluate their scanning confidence after participation. We developed a program to facilitate bedside ultrasound scanning of patients being cared for by third-year students. Students identified appropriate patients to be scanned, obtained consent for scanning, and determined which scans were most appropriate given the patient's clinical problems. Trained facilitators met with students at the bedside in 1-hour sessions called Gel Rounds to observe and direct the students' scans of their patients. Fifty-one students were surveyed after completing Gel Rounds. Students were significantly more likely to feel comfortable with independently acquiring and interpreting images after Gel Rounds than before completing the activity. Approximately 67% of students felt that ultrasound had utility in assisting bedside clinical reasoning, and this proportion did not change significantly after completing Gel Rounds. Gel Rounds was a positive continuation of the ultrasound curriculum into the third-year clerkship environment. A minority of students reported prior ultrasound exposure in their third year, reflecting difficulty with developing a longitudinal curriculum. The activity helped students to independently acquire and interpret images in patients. Because Gel Rounds can be performed at the discretion of students and faculty, it fits naturally in a variety of existing longitudinal curricula.
