Assessment of Erectile Dysfunction in Diabetic Men: Prevalence, Severity, and the Role of Nursing Care

Abstract

Aim: This study intended to evaluate the prevalence and intensity of erectile dysfunction in men with diabetes. Method: The sample included 128 diabetic men, and data were gathered using a personal information form along with the 5-item version of the International Index of Erectile Function scale. Results: The level of erectile dysfunction was 16.95±2.07 (mild-moderate) and erectile dysfunction was detected in all individuals participating in the study. Conclusion: In conclusion, nurses should take the patient's medical history into consideration when evaluating erectile dysfunction and evaluate the general health status. Healthcare providers should deliver education and counseling, ensuring that both the patient and their spouse are informed about appropriate treatment options. In nursing practice, it is essential to adopt an individualized approach and develop a personalized care plan. This way, erectile dysfunction in diabetic men can be effectively managed, and the patient’s quality of life can be improved.
