MSC G +D

French to English Medical Medical: Health Care Tilt test
I am translating the results of a tilt test from French into US English. This is a medical test done to evaluate symptoms of syncope (fainting)

https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/treatment-tests-and-t...

This link gives information about the tilt test.

In the observations section of the results , I can find the following MSC G +D

I have no idea what this means.

Thanks.
