pubmed:abstractText
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is increasingly considered as one manifestation of systemic vascular disease. Accordingly, ED and coronary artery disease share mutual risk factors and frequently coexist. Sexual health is an important aspect of our patients' lives, and ED is a common concern of the cardiovascular patient. Despite this, sexual function is under-addressed in the cardiac patient. Even when this topic is broached by the primary care physician or urologist, ED frequently remains untreated due to safety concerns involving cardiac disease and other comorbidities. This article describes our experience with this unique patient population, as well as our approach to building a multidisciplinary clinic designed to specifically address the important issue of ED in the cardiac patient.
