Abdulrahim Abdulhameed (born March 31, 1990) is a male Bahraini Taekwondo practitioner.

At the 2010 Asian Games, Abdulrahim was a win away from securing at least a bronze medal, but with about a minute into his quarterfinal bout against Kim Seong-Ho of South Korea, he began to feel dazed and short of breath while experiencing unbearable pain in his abdomen. He even had trouble standing up by himself, and needed to be stretchered off the playing court and into an ambulance to be rushed to a local hospital. Abdulrahim underwent successful laparoscopic surgery next day to remove some blood that had collected in his abdomen which was causing him severe pain while competing at the Asian Games. [1]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Abdominal examination</span> Physical examination of abdomen

An abdominal examination is a portion of the physical examination which a physician or nurse uses to clinically observe the abdomen of a patient for signs of disease. The abdominal examination is conventionally split into four different stages: first, inspection of the patient and the visible characteristics of their abdomen. Auscultation (listening) of the abdomen with a stethoscope. Palpation of the patient's abdomen. Finally, percussion (tapping) of the patient's abdomen and abdominal organs. Depending on the need to test for specific diseases such as ascites, special tests may be performed as a part of the physical examination. An abdominal examination may be performed because the physician suspects a disease of the organs inside the abdominal cavity (including the liver, spleen, large or small intestines), or simply as a part of a complete physical examination for other conditions. In a complete physical examination, the abdominal exam classically follows the respiratory examination and cardiovascular examination.
