PD45-11 SEVERE OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNOEA SYNDROME AND ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION: A PROSPECTIVE RANDOMISED STUDY TO COMPARE SILDENAFIL VS. NASAL CONTINUOUS POSITIVE AIRWAY PRESSURE

Abstract

yGroup D-Subjects from the placebo group of the RCT study, who did not demonstrated significant improvement in their IIEF-EF domain score, received an additional treatment course with an active shockwave applicator. The treatment protocol those subjects received was identical to the original study protocol.yyRCT-Subjects that were poor responders to PDE5i prior to Li-ESWT, were allowed PDE5i use at baseline and following last treatment until FU1 assessment (all pt. achieved erection hardness score 2 at baseline, and EHS 3 in 62% at FU1 . Population pilot study included).zMCID (Rosen)-Success define as: an increase in the IIEF-EF Domain score 2 points from baseline for mild ED, 5 points for moderate ED, and 7 points for severe ED. ED Severity define as : Mild ED: IIEF-EF score 17-22 ,Moderate ED: IIEF-EF score 11-16, Severe ED: IIEFEF score 0-10.
