Frequency of viral monitoring to detect cytomegalovirus infection and prevent disease in solid organ transplant recipients: an international, multicenter cohort study

Key Points

• Cytomegalovirus infection prevention reduces disease incidence in organ transplant recipients.
• Infection was detected more frequently with rigorous viral monitoring strategies, showing a higher success rate.
• Analysis involved a large multicenter cohort, highlighting diverse clinical practices in viral monitoring.
• The findings support the need for standardized monitoring to improve patient outcomes across transplant centers.
