The CMV IgG Test is a diagnostic tool used to detect IgG antibodies in the blood, which indicate a past infection or immunity to Cytomegalovirus. CMV is a common virus that typically remains dormant in healthy individuals but can cause serious complications in immunocompromised individuals and pregnant women. This test is essential for determining prior exposure to CMV, particularly for pregnant women to assess the risk of transmitting the virus to the unborn child.

CMV infections are generally harmless in healthy individuals but pose significant risks for those with weakened immune systems, including organ transplant recipients and individuals undergoing chemotherapy. For pregnant women, the virus can be transmitted to the fetus, potentially causing congenital CMV, which may result in hearing loss, developmental delays, or other serious health issues. The CMV IgG Test helps identify past exposure, enabling healthcare providers to evaluate immunity levels and mitigate risks effectively.
