Interpreter Notes

Interpreters should be aware that this term is used in very specific clinical contexts, often involving patients with multiple comorbidities. Common variants that may be heard include 'enfermedad por citomegalovirus' or simply 'citomegalovirus', but it is crucial to use the full term to maintain clarity in medical discussions. Avoid colloquial terms that may not convey the same clinical significance.
