Progressive dilating and obliteration are the physiological changes the nurse would anticipate after an amniotomy is performed.
The fetal head can press more forcefully against the cervix thanks to the artificial rupture of the membranes (amniotomy), which improves dilation and effacement.
As labor progresses, vaginal bleeding may become more severe. The fetal heart rate is not immediately impacted by amniotomy.
Because contractions typically intensify and become more frequent when the membranes are artificially ruptured, discomfort may worsen.

It can also happen during mitotic division, which may result in loss of heterozygosity.
