what is CDL

Hello everyone,

I am a new nurse just started working a week ago. I saw "CDL" on a charting paper. I asked the nurse what it means, but I forgot when I got home -_- Can anyone help me out? Thanks!!!!

Thanks! I remember the nurse told me that it contains several things. I thought I saw it in the lab section. But it might be what macawake says. I will ask again when I go back to work this weekend and then will post my answer here. Thanks!!!

OP - please do check back and let us know the definition. It is interesting when something seems to baffle many of us and, like you, we're curious too.

Are you sure it wasn't CDI which could stand for clean, dry and intact?

In what context was it used?

This brings up the point to NEVER use abbreviations.
