Causes - காரணங்கள்
Infection with cytomegalovirus (CMV) is very common. The
infection is spread by:
·
Blood

·
Organ
transplants

·
Respiratory

Most people come into contact with CMV in their lifetime.
Typically only people with a weakened immune system become ill from CMV
infection. Some otherwise healthy people with acute CMV infection develop a
mononucleosis-like syndrome.
In the United States, CMV infection most commonly develops
between ages 10 and 35. Many people are exposed to CMV early in life but do not
realize it because they have no symptoms, or they have mild symptoms that
resemble the common cold. People with a compromised immune system can have a
more severe form of the disease.
CMV is a type of herpes virus. The virus remains in your body
for the rest of your life. If your immune system becomes weakened in the
future, this virus may have the chance to reactivate, causing symptoms.

Special lab tests such as a CMV DNA serum PCR test may be done

such as a CMV antibody test may be done to check your body’s response to the
CMV infection.

Prevention
CMV infection can be contagious if the infected person comes in
close or intimate contact with another person. You should avoid kissing and
sexual contact with an infected person.
The virus may also spread among young children in day care
settings.
When planning blood transfusions or organ transplants, the CMV
status of the donor can be checked to avoid passing CMV to a recipient who has
not had CMV infection.
