Abstract

In an emergency department ‘where every second counts for patients management’ every single individual and every department involved with the patient care makes a difference in patient’s rapid diagnosis and treatment.1 Portable x-rays play a vital role in early diagnosis and thereof management of patient however it has been observed that there are frequent delays in performing the required imaging. We looked into the problem faced by the radiographers in performing the x-ray thus resulting in delays. Identifying and rectifying these causes may help prompt service and better patient care.
