MES

français vers anglais Médecine Médecine : soins de santé
MES has been answered before, but none of the answers fit this context. This is from a lovely, handwritten occupational therapy report from a hospital in Québec. The patient is 87 years old and has just had surgery to repair a right hip fracture.
The context is as follows:
M. á voir en ergo ce jour pour enseignements des procédures et équipements/aides techniques, mais pas de MES ce jour...

And again:
M. n'est pas prêt avec MES au jour 2 post-op. Comprend bien les enseignements faits par verbal / démonstration, mais pourraient être consolidés par MES lorsque aura amélioration physique et fonctionnelle.

I thought at first that it might be an error for MEC (weight-bearing), but now I don't think that's right. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

myoelectric signal

This is a test that is done to evaluate the electrical signals within muscles. I am not quite sure how it works, but it is apparently used to better understand damage to muscles and nerves, and I would hazard a guess here: to monitor progress during therapy.

The link provided is very interesting and happens to be in both English and French.

More examples can be found by doing a google.ca search on "(MES) signal myoélectrique"
Example sentence:

cette étude était d’observer l’amplitude du signal myoélectrique [MES]

Note from asker:
Thanks for the suggestion Ryan, I'm not sure if it works in this context, but I am going to add to this to my references.
