De Vlieger G, Meersseman W, Lagrou K, Wouters P, Wilmer A, Peetermans WE, Van den Berghe G, Van Wijngaerden E. Crit Care Med, 2012, 40(1):36-42.

Comment

This interesting paper looks at outcomes in patients who have CMV reactivation during critical illness.  Given that no difference in outcome could be established, the authors conclude that prophylaxis for CMV positive patients is probably unnecessary.
