The goal of this activity is to provide clinicians with the clinical tools necessary to identify and manage treatment-refractory and drug-resistant CMV in patients after solid organ transplantation (SOT). A panel of infectious diseases experts review current CMV treatment guidelines, discuss antiviral resistance testing, and provide insights for management with a new antiviral therapeutic option. An experienced patient with CMV provides important practical take-aways for clinicians to use with their own SOT patients.
