Portuguese translation: aumentar excessivamente o ganho

English to Portuguese translations [PRO]
Medical - Medical: Cardiology / mitral regurgitation (echocardiography)
English term or phrase: overgain
"In secondary MR, a biphasic pattern can be seen in which MR improves during midsystole when LV pressure (i.e., closing force) is at its maximum. It is important for the sonographer not to “overgain” the machine to make this phenomenon disappear."

Portuguese translation:aumentar excessivamente o ganho
Explanation:
In this case it's OVERgain, so it's not just "aumentar o ganho", but "aumentar excessivamente o ganho" if you'd use this "lean word"

A more portuguese word is "amplificar", so in the sentence the word would be "sobreamplificar"
