The CMV IgM test detects immunoglobulin M antibodies specific to cytomegalovirus (CMV) in the blood, indicating a recent or current CMV infection. CMV is a common virus belonging to the herpesvirus family, often asymptomatic in healthy individuals but potentially serious in pregnant women and immunocompromised patients. A positive CMV IgM result suggests recent exposure or active infection, while a negative result typically indicates no recent infection. This test helps in diagnosing primary CMV infection, guiding clinical management, and assessing risks in pregnancy or immunocompromised states.
