Zedu Weekly Wrap – 24 March 2023
March is almost done already…

and the Easter bun consumption is considerably higher than anticipated for the time of year – it’s what’s been powering the teaching for the past week or two 🙂 Now in Orlando for AIUM – a mega trip across the world but well worth it to catch up with friends and learn about the latest in the ultrasound world.
Hopping through the ultrasound FOAM this week highlights include videos from Joseph Minardi (@jminardi21) on DVT and 1st trimester, more brilliant resources on renal health from Matt Tabbut and the team at MetroHealth (@MH_EMultrasound) and a nice overview of POCUS in onco-nephrology from Abhilash Koratala (NephroP).
Heaps of other stuff to work your way through over the weekend. PLUS – the topic for next month’s coaching corner is out now (details below) – be sure to tune in and bring the tips and tricks you use to make teaching ultrasound easier – the more the merrier. Looking forward to learning about what you do.
See you next week.
Suean and Mike
P.S. – COMING to the Coaching Corner in April – if you’re teaching ultrasound join the discussion and share your experiences as we explore how to streamline lesson planning and maximise learner outomces. Plus if you can’t wait the Coaching Corner back catalogue can be viewed anytime here.
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!
