description Medical grand rounds as a key teaching exercise originating from the bedside rounds conducted by prominent clinicians. Traditional (face-to-face) Ground Rounds have been robust in medical education that can update students 'information and help students' clinical decisions in treating their patients. Due to the Coronavirus Disease of 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and its effects on different aspects of life, including education, most medical universities have begun to use online education as a new way to provide medical education, and online classes have become one of the common teaching methods. Virtual Grand Round sessions were implemented to facilitate continuity of care. Implementing virtual grand rounds during the pandemic period and considering the results and effectiveness from the perspective of students as direct benefactors can provide a good understanding of the potential of this method of e-learning. This article provides an overview of which medical disciplines have used the virtual Grand Round program for education during the COVID-19 pandemic and what are the benefits and results.
