Based primarily on data from Dobrer S, et al., this slide deck explores how cytomegalovirus (CMV) viral load kinetics influence patient and graft outcomes in kidney transplant recipients. CMV remains a persistent post-transplant challenge, even with prophylaxis and monitoring strategies. The data show that higher viral loads, prolonged infections, and recurrences are associated with poorer outcomes and increased graft loss. Also learn how factors such as D+/R– serostatus, older recipient age, and delayed graft function increase the risk of both initial and recurrent CMV infections.
