A recently published patent application titled "Electro-Stimulation Systems And Methods For Rehabilitation And Treatment Of Pelvic Disorders" discusses a neuroelectrostimulation system for treating sexual disorders such as erectile dysfunction (ED) and female sexual arousal disorder (FSAD). The system consists of an implantable stimulation unit, an external patient controller, and an external physician controller. The goal of the invention is to optimize the configuration of electrodes and stimulation parameters without the need for extensive testing. The patent application also provides information on the causes and prevalence of ED, including post-prostatectomy ED, as well as the limitations of current treatment options. Additionally, the application describes an implantable stimulation unit that can be used to treat urinary incontinence and other pelvic disorders. The unit includes an array of electrodes and a programmable controller that can select the appropriate electrodes and stimulation parameters to achieve a rapid erectile response, rehabilitate nerve transmission, and reduce penile fibrosis. The controller can be pre-programmed with different stimulation modes, including a rapid response mode, a nerve rehabilitation mode, and a penile rehabilitation mode. The system can be implanted during a prostatectomy and can be adjusted using an external controller. [Extracted from the article] |
