Posted August 10, 20204 yr We sometimes culture infants for herpes simplex born through a normal vaginal delivery and maternal herpes simplex is discovered late during or after delivery (typically recurring herpes). In case of a positive herpes PCR, for example in the upper airway, but negative PCR in blood and cerebrospinal fluid - how would you outline management How do you reason around "colonization" vs "infection" with herpes simplex? My experience over the years, is that a more active management are now adviced from our virology consultants, i.e. iv acyklovir for a relatively long time period.
