"Erectile Function After PCI in MI and Non-MI Patients"

Recruiting now

Conditions studied: Erectile Disfunction, Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), Diabete Mellitus, Anxiety, Depression and Quality of Life

In brief

The goal of this observational study is to assess changes in patients' erectile function after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using a standard IIEF (International Index of Erectile Function) questionnaire at 1, 3, and 6 months post-PCI. By doing this, we try to compare patients' responses to PCI after having a heart attack and stable angina to see the real effect of myocardial infarction on erectile function status in the long term by comparing it with a very similar group.
