contents Survey of Post‐Prophylaxis Delayed‐Onset Cytomegalovirus Management Strategies Among Transplant Providers Lemuel R. Non Chen Sabrina Tan Dilek Ince Raymund R. Razonable Clinical Transplantation ABSTRACTBackgroundPreventive strategies for cytomegalovirus (CMV) in the posttransplant period have changed the pattern of CMV infections, now more commonly manifesting as late‐onset occurrences known as post‐prophylaxis delayed‐onset CMV disease (PPDOC). We conducted a survey to investigate provider practices in managing PPDOC.MethodsA web‐based provider survey on the management of PPDOC was developed using Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCap). It was distributed to the online forums of the American Society of Transplantation communities of practice (COP) for Infectious Diseases (IDCOP), Kidney and Pancreas (KPCOP), Liver and Intestinal (LICOP), and Thoracic and Critical Care (TCCOP). The survey was posted twice within a span of a month.ResultsFifty‐six respondents, comprising 50 (89%) transplant physicians and 6 (11%) transplant pharmacists, from 46 distinct transplant centers, completed the survey. Universal antiviral prophylaxis (UAP) was the predominant preventive approach for both high‐risk (85%) and moderate‐risk (85%) transplant recipients. Out of 56, 51 respondents completed the questions regarding management of PPDOC. Regular surveillance with nucleic acid amplification tests (NAAT) (88%) was the most commonly used approach in high‐risk recipients, while symptom monitoring (73%) was the most common strategy in moderate‐risk recipients. Immunologic monitoring was used only by a few respondents who found it moderately useful in high‐risk recipients.ConclusionManagement of PPDOC was highly variable among providers and strategies differed based on patient risk profile. These findings could help shape future studies and guidelines to harmonize CMV management. 10.1111/ctr.70015 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/
