Arrange the following key steps of a lower-segment cesarean delivery in the correct chronological order, from first to last.
Answer
Open and displace the uterovesical peritoneum, Incise the lower uterine segment, Deliver the infant and placenta, Close the anterior abdominal wall
Explanation
The uterovesical peritoneum is handled before the uterine incision; delivery follows, and abdominal closure occurs after delivery and uterine repair. **Key takeaway:** The sequence preserves the logical progression of access, delivery, and closure. **Glossary:** **Anterior abdominal wall**: the front wall of the abdomen.
