Zedu Weekly Wrap – 29 July 2022
The past week has been a big one at Zedu HQ…
aside from the inevitable impacts on everyone of a certain virus that shall not be named, we had a massive weekend with the TRain the UltraSound Trainer course, followed closely by the launch of both our POCUS Educators / Seed resource page and POCUS Educators / Seed Support Network on Facebook.
Both initiatives were sparked by TRUST, as we realised two things:
- First – that there was no one-stop shop where people interested in becoming a POCUS educator (or a Sonographer Educator in the Emergency Department) could find information on what you need to know and where you can go for that information.
- Second – that there needed to be a space where we could easily share ideas, problems, tips and tricks for POCUS education – somewhere where we can really create a community dedicated to improving the teaching experience.
There has already been a great response to both – we invite you to come along, have a look and join in. Everyone is welcome.
Plus the release of course dates for the first half of 2023 has been uploaded on the website. All that with the weekly wrap – the mouse has really been in overdrive this week!
That’s all for now…see you next week

Get the most out of your teaching moments – join our TRain the UltraSound Trainer (TRUST) course This isn’t a course on how to perform an ultrasound examination or use the technology – it’s designed to give you the teaching tools you’ll need to teach ultrasound on the run. In the words of a previous participant – it’s meta! We’re running this internationally recognised course in Australia for the first time in July and October – don’t miss out.

Incorporating Dynamic Needle Tip Positioning (DNTP) for peripheral and arterial access has been a game changer. DNTP with cephalic vein cannulation has revolutionized our management for big peds abdominal cases where you need good UPPER EXTREMITY access. https://t.co/7IkPPuGE1S pic.twitter.com/g8Db4YjiN0
