congenital CMV infection

Brief summary

The rate of vertical transmission, assessed by CMV PCR on amniotic fluid collected during an amniocentesis at 20w. This result will be reconfirmed by PCR on a urine sample postnatally.

Detailed description

Imaging abnormalities indicative for vertical transmission assed on ultrasound two weekly and on MRI at 30w GA., Maternal safety assessed by blood analysis (hematology, liver function, kidney function) and clinically, Fetal safety assessed by ultrasound prenatally, blood analysis at birth on umbilical cord blood (hematology, liver function), postnatal urine sample, MRI postnatally, Long term effects: hearing assessment yearly until year 4 and neurodevelopmental follow-up at 1,2 and 5 years of age.
