简要总结
The primary objective of this study is to determine the impact of the shock wave application in renal transplant patients with diagnosis of erectile dysfunction. Secondary objectives are to assess the effects of therapy on quality of life and depression.
It is expected that with the study is defined the usefulness of the therapy and the dissemination of knowledge generated for change in clinical management in renal transplant patients with erectile dysfunction.
详细描述
The Renal Transplant Unit, performs about 230 kidney transplants per year and has a screening service for registration of candidates for renal transplantation, interviewing about 70 patients a month. Since the potential and likely benefits of extracorporeal shock wave therapy in these patients as well as the anticipation of mild side effects, there is no reason for refusal to participate in the study.
Patients who meet the inclusion criteria will be divided into 2 groups using a randomization table created by computer. Patients will be followed for 2 years.
The study procedure and monitoring will be performed on an outpatient basis.
Patients are divided into a group of extracorporeal shockwave (ESWT) treatment and placebo in a ratio of 1: 1 using a table of random numbers generated by computer.
The ESWT protocol is protocol-based suggested by Vardi et al. 6. Patients will undergo a 2 treatment sessions per week for 3 weeks.
