Zedu Weekly Wrap – 2 December 2022
December 2 is an auspicious date for us…
It was a warm Sunday evening on in 2007 when we came up with the mad plan that teaching bedside ultrasound (POCUS wasn’t even a term then) was a good idea. And so Ultrasound Training Solutions was born.
In the ensuing 15 years – and without hyperbole – we’ve had births, deaths, marriages, floods, fires, rebranding to Zedu and pandemics to deal with. No wonder our hair is a different shade these days…
But throughout it all our passion has never waivered, and this is in no small part is thanks to you. We wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for your support, energy and drive to learn and develop your ultrasound skills. As technology develops and teaching methods change we hope that we’ll be there with you for another 15 years.
Highlights for this week include Scott Biggerstaff’s (@medpedspocus) summary of of POCUS papers, Joseph Minardi (@jminardi21) continues the reease of his YouTube POCUS series, and TracyMorton (@TracyMorton) discusses how tele-echo is changing things up in remote Canada.
That’s all for now – we’re off to eat some birthday cake – see you next week…

Past 2 weeks were so nuts I missed my first non-vacation @VaveHealth CMO vid of the week in almost 2.5 yrs! I believe bladder #POCUS is SO useful: real POCUS not bladder scanner. Even imperfect images, overgained w moving patient have value. Watch this & read on for a case: 1/n pic.twitter.com/hv2CGH8uJu
