No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Because the potential benefit of standard intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG) - obtained from unselected donor pools including a varying proportion of donors previously exposed to CMV - has not yet been explored in pregnant women, the investigators performed a longitudinal prospective study on the possible efficacy of IVIG for prevention or therapy of fetal CMV infection.
