Hi,
I am translating medical prescriptions with a list of pain scales. I have translated all of them except ECPA as I can't seem to find an official translation. Does one exist?
ECPA = échelle comportementale pour personnes agées
Thanks
Joanna

ECPA / FaB-FC (Can. : Falls Behavioral Scale for the Older Person)
Canads is - excluding indigenous languages - a bilingual French /(non-pidgin) English country. So it would be odd if there weren't a rough English equivalent or 'approximation' to such scale.
BTW, FaB is nowt to with the Fab Four 4's last and latest Beatles release this month.

Example sentence:
Like the original FaB, the French Canadian version of the tool (FaB-FC) is valid and reliable for assessing fall-related behaviors.

philgoddard
: It's nothing to do with falls - this is about determining pain from physical behaviour. The tool you reference is called FAB-FC, not ECPA.
