PM-08 Therapy Experience of Shock Waves of Low Intensity in Patients with Dysfunction Erectile in Canada
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common disease,it mostly affects men older than 40 years. Treatment options are wide among which are the extracorporeal shock waves with low intensity (LI-ESWT). The objective of this study is to show the Canadian experience observed in a group of patients receiving LI-ESWT. We included patients with ED with more than 3 months of evolution diagnosed in 2015, of vascular etiology, without hormonal disorders, psychogenic origin and concomitant treatment. It was applied to them a weekly session of 3000 waves, energy of 0, 2mJ for mm2 for 6 weeks. We evaluated the effectiveness of treatment with questionnaires EHS (Erectile Hardness Score), IIFE-5 (international index of erectile function) and Sexual Encounter Profile (SEP), in the last session, at the first month, three and six months after treatment. 118 patients met the selection criteria, the average age was 60.4 years (DE12.9). It was observed a significant increase in the score of the IIEF-5, 1st month (p = 0.002), 3 months (p = 0.001) and 6 months (p = 0.001) of completed treatment, compared with the basal. Regarding the EHS, all measurements showed a significant increase compared to the initial score; Of 95 patients who had no erection (score 0-2) at the beginning, 30 at the end of therapy managed scores 3-4, 23-month, 24-3 months, 20 at 6 months. It was noticed that of 111 patients who before the therapy had no erections durable for a relationship, at the end of 18 treatment changed state, 12 month follow-up, 18 at 3 months and 6 months 19.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
