About Us
Congenital CMV Disease Research Clinic & Registry provides continuous research on the biology, epidemiology, clinical manifestations, methods to diagnose treatment and prevention of congenital CMV disease as well as to raise public awareness of the life-long impact it may have. Our work focuses on improving the quality of life of children through prevention of disease by providing community resources and a parent support worldwide network.
Congenital CMV is the most common congenital infection in newborns, affecting nearly one percent of all live births in the United States. This translates to 30,000 to 40,000 infants born each year with congenital CMV.
Healthcare
At Texas Children's Hospital we strive to improve the quality of life for babies with congenital CMV through education, healthcare and research. The National Congenital CMV Disease Research, Clinic & Registry provides community resources, parent support networking to raise public awareness of congenital CMV disease and the life-long impact it may have.
