The Zedu weekly wrap - bringing together the best in free ultrasound news, views and opinions from across the internet.

Zedu Weekly Wrap – 11 August 2023

Hey crew…

Suean and Michael - Zedu Ultrasound

it’s been a diverse week this week – chokka block full of obstetricians and podiatrists! Quite the contrast, but with ultrasound as the common ground a really fun time.

We’ve captured a similarly diverse range of items in the weekly wrap too – from real-time ultrasound evaluation of core muscles to emergency medicine curriculum development there’s sure to be something to pique your interest.

We recommend taking a look at:

  • Brian Elliott’s (@BrianElliottMD1) review of the “Implementation and Evaluation of a Longitudinal Flipped-Classroom Point-of-Care Ultrasound Curriculum at an Internal Medicine Residency Program” (9 August)
  • A tutorial from ALiEM (ALiEMteam) on the use of point of care ultrasonography (POCUS) for pediatric lung ultrasound (9 August)

PLUS we’ve uploaded to our website for your viewing pleasure the August Coaching Corner – providing a step-by-step guide to TV scanning. And of course there’s our usual articule of the week and a load of other resources.

Signing off now – see you next week!
