Although treating patients with HSV bronchopneumonitis may be recommended, based on expert opinion, prophylactic or preemptive treatment of HSV reactivation should be avoided. Ventilator-associated pneumonia due to cytomegalovirus (CMV) is less frequent than HSV bronchopneumonitis, and more difficult to diagnose. No data exists on the impact of antiviral treatment on CMV pneumonia. The involvement of respiratory viruses has been described in patients with healthcare-associated pneumonia and hospital-acquired pneumonia, but their role in ventilator-associated pneumonia is not clear.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0041-1740981","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,2,1]],"date-time":"2022-02-01T00:47:35Z","timestamp":1643676455000},"page":"310-318","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Viral
