Study Summary

This phase I clinical trial studies how well low intensity shockwave therapy (LiSWT) improves erectile function in patients who have had nerve-sparing radical prostatectomy (NS-RP), a type of surgery that attempts to save the nerves near the tissues being removed, for prostate cancer. Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a known side effect of the radical prostatectomy procedure. The low intensity shockwave therapy delivers painless electrotherapy pulse to increase blood flow and supply, activation of tissues and wound healing. Using LiSWT after NS-PRP may improve erectile function in men with prostate cancer.

Primary Outcome

Will be assessed using the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) The IIEF is a15-item questionnaire - each item scored from 0 to 5 - examines five main domains of male sexual function: erectile function, orgasmic function, sexual desire, intercourse satisfaction and overall satisfaction. Outcomes measured only at 6 months post randomization will be analyzed using analysis of covariance with adjustment for the baseline value.
