{"title":"Newborn Screening for Congenital Cytomegalovirus (cCMV) Infection: Universal, Targeted, Expanded-Targeted, or None-of-the-Above?","authors":"Mark R Schleiss","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"Congenital cytomegalovirus (cCMV) infection is the most common cause of neurodevelopmental sequelae in the United States (US). The most common long-term disability associated with cCMV is sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). Among children with cCMV-associated SNHL, over 40% will pass their newborn hearing screen (NHS). Therefore, to maximize the identification of infants at risk for SNHL, there is a strong rationale for universal cCMV screening. Early identification of cCMV also allows for the timely commencement of antiviral therapies for some infants, which in turn can improve clinical outcomes. Congenital infection must be diagnosed in the newborn infant in the first 21 days of life since demonstration of CMV infection beyond this time point commonly reflects postnatal acquisition, typically from breastfeeding. Although many advocates are enthusiastic about universal cCMV screening (1-3), other experts express hesitancy in embracing such a policy recommendation until there is more evidence of cost-effectiveness. Moreover, since most infants with cCMV are asymptomatic and have a good prognosis for normal neurodevelopmental outcomes, there is concern that universal screening may raise undue anxiety for parents of infants with asymptomatic cCMV infection (4). This review considers the pros and cons of different cCMV screening approaches, emphasizing enhancing awareness of new and emerging approaches for neonatologists in clinical practice.","PeriodicalId":519931,"journal":{"name":"Neonatology today","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11498343/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142515889","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current study describes the process and lessons learned from implementing a remote assessment of mother-infant interactions during the pandemic.Description: At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, we pivoted from in-person to using two different strategies to remotely assess mother-infant interactions: (1) participants independently recorded and uploaded videos of free-play with their child; and (2) research team conducted a live-video recording of the free-play.Assessment: We found initial barriers including technical and video quality issues but overall, a remote option could increase enrollment and retention rates in a sample of postpartum women across various racial/ethnic groups and economic levels.Conclusion: Our experiences in conducting remote assessments with postpartum women add to growing evidence for the feasibility and validity of remote visits. This showed how our methods can be implemented in future research and in practice with postpartum mothers and their infants.","PeriodicalId":519931,"journal":{"name":"Neonatology today","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11149665/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141249034","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
