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

Zedu Weekly Wrap – 23 September 2022

It’s been two public holidays in a row here…

Suean and Michael - Zedu Ultrasound

one to recognise the death of the Queen, another to celebrate a football final. While both topics can be divisive, if one thing will bring Aussies together it’s a holiday!

Another thing that brings us together is the ultrasound news 🙂 – holidays don’t stop us…

Highlights this week to check out include a research paper by Aidan Baron (@Aidan_Baron) ‘The Sonographic OODA Loop: Proposing a beginner’s model for learning point-of-care ultrasound’, a webinar from our UK friend Stuart Wildman (@swildmanphysio) on POCUS in musculoskeletal physioptherapy practice, and a reminder of the amazing free teaching resources made available by US educator extraordinaire Ernest Fischer (@EAFischer).

Plenty to keep the POCUS enthusiast busy.

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.
