CMV-seropositive patients had an increased risk of reintubation after cardiac surgery, which was associated with reactivations of their CMV infections. Additional studies should determine whether this complication may be prevented by monitoring of latently infected patients and administering antiviral treatment for reactivated CMV infections.
