If the fetus is delivered within 24 hours, it may survive if the water ruptures near or at the due date; if the water ruptures farther away, the fetus may be at risk. Amniotic fluid rupture refers to the rupture of the fetal membranes and the flow of amniotic fluid from the vagina. If the rupture of membranes occurs in a pregnant woman around the due date, most of them can be delivered automatically within 24 hours, which will not lead to adverse consequences and will not have serious effects on the fetus. However, if labor does not occur within 24 hours after the water breaks, it is necessary to induce labor with oxytocin, because the longer the time it takes for the membranes to break, the greater the possibility of bacteria entering the uterine cavity, increasing the risk of fetal infection; at the same time, too much amniotic fluid may cause the fetus to have no amniotic fluid, leading to fetal hypoxia and other abnormalities. For pregnant women who are far from their due date, i.e., premature rupture of membranes before full term, if the fetus is a nulliparous baby, it will not survive after birth; if it is a viable baby, it can be preserved depending on the situation to increase the possibility of survival of the newborn. Therefore, pregnant women are advised to pay attention to their body changes in daily life and send them to the doctor immediately for examination and treatment in case of abnormalities.
