Adjusting body mass index (BMI)
In KOSMOS, BMI is used to adjust the penetration level. BMI is not calculated or
supplied from the patient's height or weight entry.
There are three levels of adjustment:
• Low (default)
• Medium
• High
When you adjust the BMI, it changes the penetration signal for the ultrasound
parameters, so if you have a patient with a high BMI, you will want to increase
the BMI (and vice versa).
To adjust BMI, tap BMI, and select one of the three different penetration
levels.
Adjusting depth and gain
To adjust depth:
• To increase the displayed depth, turn the Depth knob clockwise.
• To decrease the displayed depth, turn the Depth knob counter-clockwise.
