摘要:Background Erectile dysfunction(ED)has gradually become an important issue that seriously affects the quality of life of Chinese men.In addition to classic oral medications,psychotherapeutic interventions are increasingly being used in the treatment of ED.Aim This study aims to investigate the clinical efficacy of brief psychodynamic psychotherapy(BPP)plus Viagra in the treatment of non-organic ED.Methods We initiated this study via a controlled,prospective experimental design with initial optimal efficiency standard greater than 10%.On the standard,63 patients were enrolled who were assigned to control or treatment group.The control group(including 33 cases)received Viagra treatment for 2 months,and the treatment group(including 30 cases)was cured with BPP plus Viagra.After the treatments,the clinical efficacy was assessed using the International Erectile Function Index(IIEF-5)score,the Self-rating Anxiety Scale(SAS),Sexual Satisfaction(SS)score and Erection Hardness Score(EHS).Results In the comparison of efficacy,pretreatment and post-treatment within each group,the two groups showed improvements in IIEF,SAS scores,SS,and EHS(treatment group:PIIEF<0.001,PSAS<0.001,PSS<0.001,PEHS<0.001;control group:PIIEF<0.001,PSAS<0.001,PSS<0.001,PEHS<0.001).Furthermore,the treatment group presented better performances in IIEF(p=0.040),SAS(p=0.006),SS scores(p=0.045)and EHS(p=0.041)than the control group.Conclusion The combination of BPP with Viagra has positive effect on the treatment of non-organic ED.http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/Background Erectile dysfunction(ED)has gradually become an important issue that seriously affects the quality of life of Chinese men.In addition to classic oral medications,psychotherapeutic interventions are increasingly being used in the treatment of ED.Aim This study aims to investigate the clinical efficacy of brief psychodynamic psychotherapy(BPP)plus Viagra in the treatment of non-organic ED.Methods We initiated this study via a controlled,prospective experimental design with initial optimal efficiency standard greater than 10%.On the standard,63 patients were enrolled who were assigned to control or treatment group.The control group(including 33 cases)received Viagra treatment for 2 months,and the treatment group(including 30 cases)was cured with BPP plus Viagra.After the treatments,the clinical efficacy was assessed using the International Erectile Function Index(IIEF-5)score,the Self-rating Anxiety Scale(SAS),Sexual Satisfaction(SS)score and Erection Hardness Score(EHS).Results In the comparison of efficacy,pretreatment and post-treatment within each group,the two groups showed improvements in IIEF,SAS scores,SS,and EHS(treatment group:PIIEF<0.001,PSAS<0.001,PSS<0.001,PEHS<0.001;control group:PIIEF<0.001,PSAS<0.001,PSS<0.001,PEHS<0.001).Furthermore,the treatment group presented better performances in IIEF(p=0.040),SAS(p=0.006),SS scores(p=0.045)and EHS(p=0.041)than the control group.Conclusion The combination of BPP with Viagra has positive effect on the treatment of non-organic ED.
