A nurse is preparing to remove an indwelling urinary catheter from a client. In what order should the nurse perform the following steps? (Move the steps into the box on the right, placing them in the order of performance. Use all the steps.)

Donning clean gloves protects both the nurse and client from potential contamination. Attaching the syringe to the balloon port ensures proper access to deflate the catheter balloon. Withdrawing the solution from the balloon deflates it, allowing the catheter to be safely removed without trauma. Slowly pulling the catheter out prevents discomfort and urethral injury. Drying the perineal area after removal maintains hygiene and comfort for the client.
