    Transfusion from donors who are seronegative for CMV or the usage of deglycerolized frozen RBCs whenever transfusion is contemplated. These guidelines helped in the elimination of transfusion-induced CMV infection syndrome in preterm infants in the West. Since about 95% of all blood donors in India are seropositive for CMV, they recommended that it would be unnecessary to screen blood donors for CMV.

    The American Association of Blood Banks recommends the transfusion from donors who are seronegative for CMV

    or the usage of deglycerolized frozen RBCs whenever transfusion is contemplated in a seronegative preterm child born to a mother with negative or unknown immune status with regard to CMV infection. These guidelines helped in the elimination of transfusion-induced CMV infection syndrome in preterm infants in the West. Since about 95% of all blood donors in India are seropositive for CMV, they recommended that it would be unnecessary to screen blood donors for CMV as very few seronegative blood units would be available for transfusion.
