INTRODUCTION: In pregnancy, the fetus is involved in a membrane within the uterus that contains a fluid produced by the mother's body. This liquid protects the baby from impacts and possible problems with infection and is where the baby grows and develops with the nutrition of the placenta. When this membrane ruptures without being completely made thus a broken bag that in this case can attenuate the gestational period by the eminent risk to the fetus. 

OBJECTIVE: To present Nursing diagnoses and interventions regarding premature amniorrexis. 

METHODS: Nursing diagnoses were investigated regarding premature amniorrexis for better Nursing care based on the North American Nursing Diagnosis Association (NANDA). It should be emphasized that for each nursing diagnosis some interventions were implemented.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: Diagnoses and interventions are necessary for better care and uniqueness in the care. For anxiety, it has been noticed that the patient may be frightened, worried, nervous, anxious, irritated, facial tension, shaking hands, stress, the intervention would be to perform relaxation exercises, guide self-control and provide comfort measures. 

CONCLUSION: We conclude that nursing diagnoses and interventions regarding premature amniorrexis are of relevant consideration, among them the risk for maternal / fetal infection related to the ruptured pouch is due to the routine evidence of fetal risk due to the brief exposure of amniotic content to the external environment, thus increasing the risk of fetal infections and distress. Nursing is responsible for a broad and resolutive approach to better care.
