We aimed to test the knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) of physicians towards erectile dysfunction in the Eastern province of Saudi Arabia. At a scientific meeting about erectile dysfunction, 159 physicians from both government and private sectors answered a 34-item questionnaire in private. The mean total KAP score for the group was below the expected standard of 60%. Male physicians scored significantly higher than females. Urologists scored the highest, followed by andrologists. Surprisingly, physicians with higher qualifications scored lower than those with intermediate qualifications and even less than general practitioners. Those who had practised for > or = 10 years scored better than those with < 10 years practice. The role of cardiologists in the diagnosis and management of erectile dysfunction is discussed.
我们旨在测试沙特阿拉伯东部省份医生对勃起功能障碍的知识、态度和实践（KAP）。在一次关于勃起功能障碍的科学会议上，来自政府和私营部门的159名医生私下回答了一份包含34个项目的问卷。该组的平均KAP总分低于预期标准的60%。男医生得分显著高于女医生。泌尿科医生得分最高，其次是男科医生。令人惊讶的是，资质较高的医生得分低于资质中等的医生，甚至低于全科医生。执业10年及以上的医生得分高于执业不足10年的医生。文中还讨论了心脏病专家在勃起功能障碍诊断和管理中的作用。
