Zedu Weekly Wrap - 2 February 2024

Happy 2024 to all…

we’re back on deck, the email backlog has been cleared (mostly) and we’re all set to kick some ultrasound goals in 2024.

We hope you’ve all had the opportunity to get some rest and are ready to reach for the stars with your ultrasound journey too – we’re always here to help accelerate that learning curve and launch you on your way.

Plenty of news to run through from the past week – we recommend looking at:

Michael Prats (@PratsEM) talking to the who’s who of ultrasound at SCUF in US GEL PODCAST #154 (30 January)
A recent piece in Australian Critical Care Journal (@Aus_CC) on ‘The use of diaphragm and lung ultrasound in acute respiratory physiotherapy practice and the impact on clinical decision-making: A systematic review and meta-analysis’ (30 January).

It’s Friday – so time to head out for the weekend.

See you next week 🙂

Mike and Suean
