摘要

目的:探索和分析德国新冠肺炎大流行之前和期间(2019年4月至2020年3月和2020年4月~2021年3月),[1]泌尿外科就诊患者总数的差异,[2]探索和分析新诊断的勃起功能障碍(ED)患者人数以及[3]新药处方数量的差异。方法:这项回顾性横断面研究使用了疾病分析数据库(IQVIA)的数据,包括所有年龄≥18岁的患者,他们至少去过德国85家泌尿外科诊所中的一家。结果是在大流行期间(2020年4月至2021年3月)与非大流行期间(2019年4月到2020年3月期间),每次实践中[1]新诊断为ED和[2]新处方治疗勃起功能障碍的患者的平均人数。使用Wilcoxon检验评估两个时期之间的差异。结果:在非疫情期间,有195895名男性,在疫情期间,192659名男性访问了德国的泌尿外科诊所。在非疫情期间,共有10977名男性被初步诊断为ED,在疫情期间,有12213名男性(+111.26%)被诊断为ED。尽管新ED诊断的差异在统计学上并不显著,但在所有年龄组中都观察到新ED诊断没有显著增加。此外,在所有年龄组中,新的ED处方药都没有显著增加。结论:尽管在新冠肺炎大流行期间,ED男性的泌尿外科实践就诊记录较少,但在2020年4月至2021年3月期间,所有年龄组的ED新诊断都有所增加。

Changes in frequency of urology clinic visits and diagnosis of erectile dysfunction in Germany before and during COVID-19

Objectives

To explore and analyze [1] the differences in the total number of patients visiting urology practices in Germany, [2] explore and analyze any differences in the number of newly diagnosed erectile dysfunction (ED) patients as well as [3] the number of new drug prescription, before and during the COVID-19 pandemic in Germany (April 2019-March 2020 and April 2020-March 2021).

Methods

This retrospective cross-sectional study used data from the Disease Analyzer database (IQVIA) and included all patients aged ≥18 years with at least one visit to one of 85 urology practices across Germany. Outcomes were the mean number of patients with [1] new diagnosis of ED and [2] new prescription of drugs for erectile dysfunction per practice, in pandemic (April 2020-March 2021) versus non-pandemic (April 2019-March 2020) time periods. Differences between the periods were assessed using Wilcoxon tests.

Results

In the non-pandemic period, there were 195,895 men, and in the pandemic period, 192,659 men visiting urology practices in Germany. A total of 10,977 men were initially diagnosed with ED in non-pandemic and 12,213 (+11.26%) men in pandemic time periods. Although the differences of new ED diagnoses were not statistically significant, a non-significant increase of new ED diagnoses was observed across all age groups. Also, a non-significant increase in new ED prescription drugs was detected across all age groups.

Conclusions

Even though less urology practice-visits of men with ED were recorded during the COVID-19 pandemic, an increase of new ED diagnosis was observed across all age groups between April 2020 and March 2021.
