WNL is used to indicate which phrase?

• A. Within Normal Levels
• B. Well Normalized Limits
• C. Within Normal Limits
• D. Well Normal Limits

Answer: (C)

The main idea is understanding medical shorthand used in charting. WNL stands for within normal limits, meaning the result falls inside the expected reference range and is not considered abnormal. That makes it the best answer because it reflects the standard phrase clinicians use to indicate no deviation from normal for a given parameter. The other phrasings aren’t the conventional way to express this in medical records, so they wouldn’t be used to convey that the value is normal. In practice, if a result is WNL, it’s considered not clinically concerning; if a value were outside the reference range, it would be described as abnormal or out of range rather than “within normal limits.”
