We are having issues with surgeons with the outdate of units irradiated for neonates before surgery. The neonates units are washed, irradiated and we can not give that unit to a neonate after 24 hours of irradiation process. Is there any portable ( POCT) instrument to monitor potassium levels after irradiating the units? Any advice how to handle?
