Abstract

BACKGROUND

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common problem among heart failure (HF) patients but is usually ignored in busy clinics in developing countries like Nigeria. Evidence abound that it has a great impact on the quality of life, survival, and prognosis of HF patients.

OBJECTIVE

This study sought to evaluate the burden of ED among HF patients at the University College Hospital, Ibadan.

METHODS

This pilot cross-sectional study was conducted in the Cardiology clinic of the Medical Outpatient Unit of the Department of Medicine, University College Hospital, Ibadan. Consenting male patients with chronic HF were consecutively recruited into the study between June 2017 and March 2018. The International Index of Erectile Function-version five (IIFE-5) was used to access the presence and degree of ED. Statistical analysis was done with SPSS version 23.

RESULTS

A total of 98 patients were recruited with a mean± standard deviation (SD) age of 57.6 ±13.3 years, and age range of 20-88 years. The majority of the participants were married (78.6%), and the mean ± SD duration of HF diagnosis was 3.7 ±4.6years. The overall frequency of ED was 76.5%, and those with previous self-reported ED were 21.4%. Mild erectile dysfunction, mild to moderate erectile dysfunction, moderate erectile dysfunction, and severe erectile dysfunction were present in 24(24.5%), 28(28.6%), 14(14.3%), and 9(9.2%) respectively.

CONCLUSION

Erectile dysfunction is common among chronic heart failure patients in Ibadan. Therefore, adequate attention is needed for this sexual health issue among males with heart failure to improve their quality of care.

摘要

背景

勃起功能障碍（ED）是心力衰竭（HF）患者中的常见问题，但在尼日利亚等发展中国家繁忙的诊所中通常被忽视。有大量证据表明，它对HF患者的生活质量、生存率和预后有很大影响。

目的

本研究旨在评估伊巴丹大学学院医院HF患者中ED的负担。

方法

本试点横断面研究在伊巴丹大学学院医院医学系门诊心内科进行。2017年6月至2018年3月期间，连续招募了同意参与研究的慢性HF男性患者。使用国际勃起功能指数-5版（IIFE-5）来评估ED的存在和程度。使用SPSS 23版进行统计分析。

结果

共招募了98名患者，平均年龄±标准差（SD）为57.6±13.3岁，年龄范围为20-88岁。大多数参与者已婚（78.6%），HF诊断的平均±SD持续时间为3.7±4.6年。ED的总体发生率为76.5%，既往自我报告有ED的患者为21.4%。轻度勃起功能障碍、轻度至中度勃起功能障碍、中度勃起功能障碍和重度勃起功能障碍分别占24例（24.5%）、28例（28.6%）、14例（14.3%）和9例（9.2%）。
