Abstract

We performed an international survey regarding management of infants with congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV) born at less than 32 weeks gestation or with birth weight under 1500 g. Replies from 51 level 3 neonatal intensive care units across 13 countries demonstrated striking discrepancies in screening practices, testing for cCMV, further investigations of confirmed cases, indications for initiation, and duration of treatment.
