Penile vibratory stimulation for men with spinal cord injury.
Most men with spinal cord injury cannot ejaculate via sexual intercourse (Bors and Comarr, 1960) and require medically assisted ejaculation procedures to obtain their semen. The most common procedures are penile vibratory stimulation (PVS) (Brackett et al., 1998) and electroejaculation (EEJ) (Bennett et al., 1988). It is recommended that PVS be used as the first line of treatment because it is ...
متن کاملAn analysis of 653 trials of penile vibratory stimulation in men with spinal cord injury.
PURPOSE We evaluated ejaculatory response and semen quality in 653 trials of penile vibratory stimulation in 211 men with spinal cord injury, and compared results with low versus high amplitude vibratory stimulation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Low and/or high amplitude penile vibratory stimulation was performed 1 to 27 times in each patient, and antegrade and retrograde specimens of those who ejac...

متن کاملMotivational Interviewing to Reinforce Coping and Improve Quality of Life in Patients with Spinal Cord Injury
Objectives: Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) can adversely affect ones’ life and coping with it is very important. The present study reported the effects of reinforcing coping strategies using Motivational Interviewing (MI). Methods: This was a case report of 5 males with SCI, with the Mean±SD age and time passed since the SCI of 34±15.9 years and 20.6±16.6, respectively. The study participants were ...
متن کاملReduction of spasticity with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in patients with spinal cord injury.
OBJECTIVE Spasticity with increased tone and spasms is frequent in patients after spinal cord injury (SCI). Damage to descending corticospinal pathways that normally exert spinal segmental control is thought to play an important causal role in spasticity. The authors examined whether the modulation of excitability of the primary motor cortex with high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic ...
