BACKGROUND: Non-drug therapy has proven to be the most effective and convenient method in the treatment of patients with post-Covid erectile dysfunction. One of these treatments is low-level laser therapy. The advantage of this method is the high therapeutic effect of a low-intensity laser on the function of the pudendal nerve and on the endothelium of the vessels of the cavernous body.
AIM: To study the effectiveness of low-level laser therapy in the treatment of patients with post-Covid erectile dysfunction.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Under our supervision from 2021 to 2023. At the medical center Medical Dental Institute there were 40 patients diagnosed with post-Covid erectile dysfunction. The control group (n=20) of patients underwent a 2-month course of standard drug therapy, and the main group, in addition to drug therapy, underwent a course of low-intensity laser therapy. Erectile function was assessed using the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) and quality of life was assessed using the Life Satisfaction Index (LSIA).
RESULTS: After treatment erectile function improved in the control group by 11.7% (p <0.05) and in the main group by 33.1% (p >0.05). The quality of life satisfaction in the control group increased by 28.7% (p <0.05) in the control group and by 87% (p <0.05) in the main group.
CONCLUSION: The use of a contact red laser with a wavelength of 635 nm was 1.8 times more effective than standard drug therapy in restoring erectile function. In addition, the improvement in life satisfaction during low-intensity laser therapy exceeded these indicators in the control group by 2 times.
