Zedu Weekly Wrap - 5 April 2024

It’s April which means…

it’s time for AIUM – this time in the Lone Star State. Suean and Myra are over there now getting ready for SonoSlam which is always a blast, as well as learning the latest and greatest from the world leaders in ultrasound to bring back to our shores. Keep an eye on the socials as I’m sure they will pop up somewhere 🙂

Recommendations to review from this week’s FOAMed ultrasound resources:

Joseph Minardi (@jminardi21) has completed a set of #POCUS guided regional anaesthesia in emergency medicine short videos (4 April).
Rajiv Thavanathan (@rajivthava) has produced a series of ECG & POCUS cases for dyspnea and chest pain for @ECGCases (3 April).
Michael Gottlieb (@MGottliebMD) and team have published in AJEM a ‘Controversies paper’ – “Artificial intelligence and point-of-care ultrasound: Benefits, limitations, and implications for the future” – what do you think? (30March).

Taking my intelligence out the door now…see you next week.

Mike and Suean

While it’sappealing to scanning pts with pathology when learning #POCUS we find learners benefit from imaging ‘normal’ standardized models
The focus is on skills acquisition & pattern recognition, not diagnosis
