Brief Summary

the efficacy and safety of low intensity shock wave therapy (LiSWT) as an ED treatment. Olsen et al. demonstrated that LiSWT might be a possible solution in some ED patients of organic origin . The clinical results revealed that LiSWT was beneficial to ED patients nonresponsive to phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (PDE5i) Animal studies revealed that LiSWT significantly improved ischemic muscle hemodynamics and might restore pathological changes in rats .

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change from Baseline in penile doppler parameter PSV at 6 & 12 Months post Low-intensity shock wave therapy (LiSWT).

    Peak Systolic Velocity (PSV) will be measured via penile Doppler to evaluate arterial inflow. Hemodynamic recovery is indicated by increased PSV. Unit of Measure: cm/s

    2 years

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Change from the baseline of International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) Score at 6 & 12 Months post Low-intensity shock wave therapy (LiSWT).

    2 years.

  • Change from the baseline of Erectile Hardness Scale (EHS) at 6 & 12 Months post Low-intensity shock wave therapy (LiSWT).

    2 years.

  • Change from Baseline in penile doppler parameter EDV at 6 & 12 Months post Low-intensity shock wave therapy (LiSWT).

    2 years.

  • Change from Baseline in penile doppler parameter RI at 6 & 12 Months post Low-intensity shock wave therapy (LiSWT).

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Months+
Sexmale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patient with erectile dysfunction post pelvic fracture associated with urethral injury as estimated via urethrography or endoscopy, managed by urethroplasty and proceed for LiSWT sessions, 1 month post operative.
  • Age 18-70 years.
  • Patient is able and willing to sign informed consent \& complete all study requirements.

You may not qualify if:

  • Previous hypospadias surgery.
  • Previous surgery for congenital curvature or Peyronie's disease.
  • Previous pelvic irradiation therapy.
  • Known grave psychiatric disorder.
  • Haemophilia or any other clotting disorder that causes bleeding diathesis.
  • Use of medication to increase erectile function, such as phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors and intracavernous injections, during the study.
  • Other causes of erectile dysfunction either physical causes as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, cardiovascular disease \& emotional causes.
  • Any condition or situation that, in the investigator's opinion, puts the patient at significant risk, could confound the study results, or could interfere significantly with the patient's participation in the study.
