Zedu Weekly Wrap – 25 August 2023

We’ve had a great week this week…

Suean and Michael - Zedu Ultrasound

getting in depth on all things baby with our comprehensive obstetric program. Lots of new mums eager to see their bub, and docs eager to scan them. A match made in ultrasound training heaven! And a lot of families have sent us through pics of their newest family members, so we’ve started to catalogue them on our new zedupregnancyscans Insta account – be sure to check it out for a dose of cuteness 🙂

Not so cute (I guess it depends on who you are) but equally captivating is the latest in ultrasound goodies this week – check out:

  • Metro Health Emergency Medicine (@MH_EMultrasound) and their video on MSK ultrasound in emergency medicine (24 August)
  • a piece by the team at Saint Emlyns (stemlyns) part 1 of an intro to paediatric ultrasound in the ED (23 August).

Plus there’s a whole range of other #FOAMed resources to catch up on.

The weekend’s calling – better get to mowing the lawn!

See y’all next week.

Suean and Mike

Make 2024 your year of ultrasound and check out our range of scheduled and one-on-one options that will get you scanning like a pro.

Zedu's full 2024 course calendar has been released

Join Suean & experts from around the globe - learn ultrasound tips, tricks, hacks and techniques every month - free.

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!

Association of left ventricular strain–volume loop characteristics with adverse events in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

A schematic overview of the strain–volume loop and the derived characteristics. Solid line: systolic strain–volume relation; dashed line: diastolic strain–volume relation. (a) end diastolic volume; (b) after ejecting 5% of stroke volume; (c) end systolic volume; (d) filling at 5% of stroke volume; (e) filling at two thirds of stroke volume; (f) filling at 95% of stroke volume. ES: early systolic; S: systolic; ED: early diastolic; LD: late diastolic; Uncoup: uncoupling.

Multimodality imaging for patient selection, procedural guidance, and follow-up of transcatheter interventions for structural heart disease: a consensus document of the EACVI Task Force on Interventional Cardiovascular Imaging: part 1: access routes, transcatheter aortic valve implantation, and transcatheter mitral valve interventions

(A) CMR in cross-sectional four-chamber view showing as the SS is actually an enfolding of left and right atrial walls. This fold, called Waterston groove, is externally filled by EAT assuming a ‘three-layered’ appearance. (B) 2D TOE in cross-sectional bi-caval view in attitudinal correct orientation, showing the three-layered appearance of SS. The fold is marked by a dotted red line. The curved red arrow points at the wrong TSP through SS (see text), while a curved light blue arrow points at the right TSP through the FO. (C) CMR in cross-sectional four-chamber view and (D) 2D TOE in bi-caval view (TOE), in correct attitudinal orientation. The small FO makes the site-specific TSP very challenging.
