Vacuum erection device

"A vacuum erection device (VED) is a mechanical device designed to enhance blood flow to the corpora cavernosa by creating a vacuum environment. When combined with a constriction ring at the base of the penis, VEDs can promote and sustain an erection.~This is a prospective, uncontrolled, hypothesis-generating pilot study. Eight adult male participants with penile insensitivity will be enrolled and asked to use a VED daily for six months. Monthly self-reported questionnaire data and biweekly follow-up calls will be used to assess feasibility and to collect exploratory outcome data."
