Moving Closer to Universal CMV (Cytomegalovirus) Newborn Screening
Natus CEU courses
Presented by Shannon Ross, MD
Recorded Webinar
Course: #33997Level: Intermediate1 Hour
Congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is the most common congenital infection in newborns and is a leading cause of hearing loss in children. Most infants with congenital CMV are asymptomatic at birth, but at risk for developing hearing impairment. With improved diagnostic testing for congenital CMV and more widespread recognition of the importance of early identification of infants at risk for hearing loss, there is increasing interest to screen all newborn infants for congenital CMV. This presentation will review the epidemiology and outcome of congenital CMV and the testing modalities to screen newborn infants. In addition, the current movement towards more widespread targeted and universal screening for congenital CMV will be discussed.
