摘要
目的：了解影响勃起功能障碍（ED）求医行为的相关因素,进而指导门诊医师更好地了解性健康问题,发现求医行为的潜在障碍,提高患者生活质量。方法：全国3个一线城市、16个二线城市及5个三线城市的80名泌尿外科或男科门诊医师协助参与门诊问卷调查,受调查者为年龄25~80岁、在过去6个月受ED困扰、且目前服用5型磷酸二酯酶抑制剂（PDE-5抑制剂）的门诊患者,对回收的有效问卷进行统计分析。结果：1236名ED患者对问卷完成了有效回答。受访者平均年龄42.5岁,59%拥有大专及本科学历。受访者平均月收入12351元,平均每月医疗支出712元,约占月收入的6%。患者主要通过医生、朋友、媒体及网络获得ED相关信息。44%的患者首次接受治疗ED选用的是中药/保健品,半数以上的患者选择PDE-5抑制剂是出于勃起硬度、维持勃起时间等方面的考虑。经过PDE-5抑制剂治疗可以有效的改善ED患者的勃起功能。结论：中国男性关注ED问题,然而,社会观念、经济因素等综合因素仍是阻碍一部分患者寻求医疗帮助。中国医师需要加强ED患者的健康教育,尤其是通过网络等多媒体形式。
