What does SL stand for??

In reading a patient's Kardex I saw SL in the IV therapy list of her medications. It had no dosage or any other info. What is this?

Saline lock in that context, I would guess (it's not on my agency's approved abbreviations list). In other contexts it could be sublingual.

Yes, it is saline lock.

That is exactly why it is not on your agency's approved abbreviations list.
