Dr. Nhu Tran is a nurse scientist with a goal of improving developmental outcomes and health equity of vulnerable neonates. Her role blends direct patient care (as an RN in the NICU at Children's Hospital Los Angeles) and research (as an Assistant Professor of Clinical Pediatrics at the University of Southern California). She is certified as a critical care registered nurse in the NICU and as a Clinical Research Professional. Her research has been funded by the National Institutes of Nursing Research, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and Southern California Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute.
Currently, her research aims to identify the mechanism of brain injury and developmental delay in infants with congenital heart defects (CHD). Specifically, she is examining the longitudinal association of dysregulated brain blood flow and developmental delays in infants with congenital heart disease compared with healthy controls. By doing so, her research can modulate or tailor early interventions to improve outcomes of high-risk neonates and children.
Cardiac issues are common in preterm infants which means it’s crucial for care providers to be knowledgeable about the presentation and clinical management of arrythmias and heart defects. Learn more about common neonatal dysrhythmias (e.g., supraventricular tachycardia, heart block), their clinical presentation and how to treat them. We will also look at the common neonatal heart defects, how to stabilize the neonate before intervention, and perioperative clinical care.
