Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the impact of single arterial cannulation (SAC) versus double arterial cannulation (DAC) during repairs for acute type A aortic dissection, focusing on patient outcomes such as hospital stay and complications.
  • A systematic review of 7 studies involving 3,534 patients revealed that DAC led to longer stays in intensive care but did not significantly affect overall length of hospital stay or rates of stroke, paraplegia, or acute kidney injury compared to SAC.
  • The findings suggest that while DAC could be associated with higher risks of complications like need for dialysis or reintubation, overall clinical outcomes remain comparable, underscoring the importance of individualized cannulation strategies for patients.*

This study explores the dynamics of work pressure and decision-making effectiveness among university department heads within the context of Middle Eastern higher education. It aims to address a significant gap in the literature by answering five key questions: (1) What level of work pressure do department heads face as perceived by faculty members? (2) Does work pressure vary based on gender or years of experience? (3) How effective are department heads in decision-making? (4) Are there differences in decision-making effectiveness related to gender, university affiliation, or experience? (5) Is there a correlation between work pressure and decision-making effectiveness? A quantitative correlational research design was employed, gathering data from a questionnaire distributed to 205 faculty members. Correlational descriptive analysis revealed that department heads are subjected to high levels of work pressure but maintain a high level of decision-making effectiveness.
