Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess if a new device is safe to use as a potential treatment for erectile dysfunction following radical prostatectomy.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Is the device safe?
* Does the device works well? Are the participants satisfied with the device?

Participants will be implanted with the device during the ongoing prostatectomy surgery and will be asked to complete the following tasks during 6 months follow-up:

* Come to the hospital for follow-up visits,
* Complete questionnaires,
* Activate the device every day,
* Measure erection hardness.

Researchers will compare an implanted group (participants having the device) with a control group (participants not having the device) to see if the device works well.

Conditions

  • Erectile Dysfunction Following Radical Prostatectomy

Interventions

DEVICE

Activation of pro-erectile nerves within the pelvic plexus

The study device is an active implantable device. The device activates the cavernous nerves by delivering electrical pulses, to trigger an on-demand erection. The daily delivery of electrical pulses to the cavernous nerves will also allow participants to recover natural erectile function.
