A close look at the evidence on low-intensity shockwave therapy in erectile dysfunction—a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

Although several RCTs demonstrated statistically significant improvements in erectile function following LI-ESWT, the majority of studies failed to achieve the minimally clinically important difference. Therefore, based on the currently available evidence, it remains unclear whether LI-ESWT provides a clinically meaningful benefit for ED at the present time. No definitive conclusions can be drawn regarding the superiority of any specific treatment regimen.
