A device that has been specially designed for the diagnosis of erectile dysfunction and to monitor the effect of ED treatments. This device is CE approved and has obtained FDA approval in the US.

Digital Inflection Rigidometer: Easy - Efficient - Reproducible results - Painless - Fast! It is the only electronic device in the market that can measure penile axial rigidity in the diagnosis of erectile dysfunction.
The DIR offers the following innovations which aim to assist the medical community in the task of identifying and resolving erectile dysfunction: Precise terminology to asses axial rigidity.

For years urologists have been using vague and subjective terminology to describe the quality of an erection: "…good, bad, stable, unstable, sufficient and insufficient…" etc. The DIR introduces a universal measurement of the quality of penile erection.: Axial rigidity is measured in grams.

By measuring axial rigidity in grams, physicians finally have a parameter that indicates the degree of a patient's erectile dysfunction.

Axial rigidity below 400 gr. - insufficient axial rigidity
Axial rigidity of 400-500 gr. - borderline rigidity
Axial rigidity of 500-1000 gr. - sufficient axial rigidity
Axial rigidity +1000 gr. - optimum rigidity

Medical document to support the need of penile surgery. The DIR provides physicians with a medical document which clearly indicates whether a patient is tributary of erectile dysfunction treatment. Moreover, the DIR can also be used to illustrate the effect of vasoactive drugs. By comparing the patient's result graph before and after receiving treatment, doctors will be able to monitor the exact degree of rigidity improvement caused by certain drugs. Another important advantage of DIR is that the patient can take all these measurements by himself (at the hospital or at home); thus avoiding the psychological pressure that can often interfere in the diagnosis by rendering results unrealistic.

The DIR gives new concepts to Andrologists:
· The Penile Axial Rigidity
· The Relative Intracavernose Pressure
· The Duration of Erection

All these measurements are taken by the patient himself in only 15 seconds each session, on a total of 8 measurements every 2-3 minutes.

The DIR offers you many ways to expand your practice. Substantial research has produced effective oral drugs that are quickly becoming the most popular treatment choice for patients all over the world. It is therefore important to be able to offer reliable follow up tests for patients on these drugs.

The DIR can help your monitor the patient's response to:
· Oral drugs
· Injection of vasoactive drugs
· Visual sexual stimulation at home
· Pre and post surgical tests

All the parameters registered by the DIR can be visualized on a PC screen through a complete graph:
· Number of sessions on the X axis
· Axial rigidity in grams on the Y axis
· Indicates the maximum, average and minimum pressure

DIR includes: hardware unit, software CD ROM (Windows compatible), sensor, three disposable sensor heads, connecting cables, battery adaptor, protective case for easy transportation, 1 year guarantee cert.
