One of the two following methods will work:

(1) Place side of your hand on patient's abdomen, superior to the symphysis pubis. Then while pressing, slide hand inferiorly until the symphysis pubis is palpated. Ensure light field covers this area of the symphysis pubis.

(2) Palpate for the greater trochanters in the femur. Ensure the light field covers this area or at least the area of the abdomen that reaches to this level of the greater trochanters.
