Mike, that's the reason why patients receiving organ donation are given prophylactic ANTIBIOTICS (usually: AMOXICILLIN, CEPHALOSPORIN, VANCOMYCIN, TRIMETHOPRIM SULFAMETHAXAZOLE) prior to surgery. In case of CMV, patients are also given a bolus of ANTI-VIRAL medication prophylactically (usually: GANGCYCLOVIR, ZIDOVUDINE, RIBAVIRIN).
The administration of prophylactic drugs significantly reduces the incidence of surgery-related bacterial and viral infection.
