Portable X-ray Special Care Neonate (SCN) During Night Shift

Issue :

Request for portable X-Ray received at night (e.g. 9pm) but was only asked to do the Xray the next morning (i.e. 6.3am – 7 am before Specialists do their rounds)

Discussion:

According to the Paediatricians, the radiograph can be done anytime between the time you received the requests until 6.3am the next morning.
Conclusion:
The procedure can be done anytime after received the request but must be done before 6.30 am.
