Aim. To study the efficiency of local baroimpulse therapy (BIT) in the complex treatment of patients with chronic abacterial prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) and erectile dysfunction (ED).
Materials and methods. A total of 112 men with confirmed diagnosis of CP/CPPS and ED, who received drug therapy according to the standards and guidelines were included in the study. In the main group (n=68) all patients additionally received local BIT in the form of rectal pneumovibromassage (PVM) of the prostate (totally, 10 procedures). In the control group (n=44) only standard treatment was provided. The efficiency of therapy was assessed based on the complex clinical examination, laboratory tests and imaging methods.
Results. At the visit 2 (1 month after the start of therapy) there were significant differences in clinical (resolution of symptoms of CP/CPPS and improvement of erectile function), laboratory and imaging criteria between 2 groups. The rectal PVM using apparatus MKV-01 “Inavita” resulted in decrease the activity of inflammation process and levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, increase of flow rate and intraprostatic blood flow. According to the analysis of long-term results, after 6 months of therapy the remission was seen in the most of patients in the main group (79.4%), which was 40.8% higher than in the control
group.
Conclusion. The use of local BIT by mean of rectal PVM allows to increase efficiency of complex treatment of patients with CP/CPPS and ED.
