Zedu Weekly Wrap - 17 May 2024

By crikey – it may be cooling down for winter…

but things are definitely heating up at Zedu HQ. We’ve had POCUS teaching back-to-back this week – nurses, midwives, obstetricians, pediatricians, general practitioners and emergency physicians – which is really a testament to the utility of ultrasound across all specialties.

We’re also starting to get close to the end of financial year so – if you need to discuss a system and training bundle – please get in touch as tax time will run out sooner than you think.

No time limit though on the free ultrasound news from this week – highlights we recommend:

Interested in subclavian central lines – cthen have a look at @MH_EMultrasound and @mtabbut (17 May)
Ultrasound G.E.L. podcast – YaleEM Podcast Day Episode 2 from @PratsEM starring @RubbleEM @CreaghB and @cianmcdermott (13 May)

That’s all for now – see y’all next week 🙂
