The sensor was applied during a doppler penile ultrasound with subsequent intracavernosal injection therapy. RESULTS: A total of 7 patients were included, 3 with PD and 4 with ED. The control group exhibited a spike in penile partial oxygen (pO2) levels after injection, followed by a return to baseline (Figure 1A). Patients with ED showed a gradual decrease in penile oxygen levels during equilibration, a sharp increase after injection, and subsequent decline towards baseline levels within 3-5 minutes of erection (Figure 1B). CONCLUSIONS: The observed temporal sequence of changes in penile oxygenation offers valuable insights into the dynamic physiological responses that occur during distinct stages of the erectile process. These findings contribute to our understanding of the intricate mechanisms underlying penile vascular physiology and their roles in erectile function. An analysis of the full patient cohort is currently ongoing.
