Neurobehavioral outcomes of neonatal asymptomatic congenital cytomegalovirus infection at 12-months

ConclusionsThese results indicate that at 12  months of age, infants with asymptomatic cCMV are not statistically different from controls in a number of neurobehavioral domains. Although follow-up is ongoing, these observations provide reassurance about neurobehavioral outcomes for infants with asymptomatic cCMV and inform the ongoing discuss ion around universal screening. Additional follow-up will be necessary to understand the longer-term outcomes of these children.
