Zedu Weekly Wrap – 2 August 2024
August has arrived…
as have the coldest days in many moons. Needless to say that the gel warmers have been on high all week π
In Zedu news weβre excited to announce our involvement in a significant international project working with the faculty of University of Santo TomasΒ (Manila) that is focused on building point-of-care (POCUS) teaching capacity and expertise.
Approached as a recognised leader in practical ultrasound education, we’re working in partnership with theΒ POCUS Certification AcademyΒ andΒ PresunaΒ on a multi-stage project that aims to ultimately deliver better healthcare services in the Philippines.
Stage one this long term program is focused on training and validating the POCUS expertise of UST faculty with the view to developing a cohort that can train the medical professionals of the future. We’re so proud to be involved in this amazing opportunity to deliver the best in ultrasound education and technology to aΒ population that will see significant community benefits. We’ll keep you posted on how things develop.
In other news (yes – there is news not related to the Olympics π ) check out:
- Abhilash Koratala (@NephroP) and team on POCUS in nephrology: A private practice viewpoint (1 August)
- Christopher Jonck (@SonoForKlinik) and team on the “Development and evaluation of a point-of-care ultrasound curriculum for paramedics in Germany β a prospective observational study and comparison” (30 July)
PLUS – don’t forget – our ultrasound program calendar for 2025 is live now. Come visit – we’d love to see you here.
Stay warm
