Zedu Weekly Wrap – 26 July 2024
The biggest event on the calendar has arrived…
as we prepare to see our athletes battle it out in Paris. Hopefully each one of them avoids the need to visit a medical specialist, but needless to say if they are in need of imaging POCUS will be a key feature.
We’ll keep an eye out for those of you involved in the games that have been to one of our courses – make us proud π
If ultrasound was a sport, the gold medals this week would go to:
- Contrast-enhanced point of care ultrasound for the evaluation of stable blunt abdominal trauma by the emergency physician: A prospective diagnostic study (@JACEPOpen) (20 July)
- POCUS to guide Abdominal Paracentesis in the emergency department (@POCUSJournal) (20 July)
There are plenty of other winners deserving of your attention, so be sure to browse through them when you’re not watching the opening ceremony.
AND – don’t forget – our ultrasound programs have been calendarised for 2025 – so join the winning team and take your ultrasound performance to the next level!
See you on the podium
Mike and Suean
