Clinical Manifestations
- CMV viral load increasing or failing to decrease after 2 weeks of appropriate antiviral therapy
- Failure to improve clinically after 2 weeks of appropriate antiviral therapy
Diagnosis
- Genotyping for resistance alleles
Management
- Decrease immunosuppression, if possible
- If switching to foscarnet or cidofovir, monitor closely for renal toxicity
