What does S/P MVC diagnosis means?

What does s/p MVC mean? It was written as the Primary Diagnosis in my patients chart today but I'm not sure what it stands for. Can anyone help? I do know that she was in a motor vehicle accident, is this what the MVC stands for? I just wouldn't think that would be part of the diagnosis name. She also had multiple fractures. Can any of you help me? I'd really appreciate it.
