First seen Jan 07, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 20 times

Summary

This study compares two methods to prevent infections during first-time penile implant surgery for erectile dysfunction. One group receives the standard antibiotic rinse, the other uses Irrisept, a single antiseptic solution. Researchers will follow 200 men for one year after surgery to see if infection rates are similar. If Irrisept works just as well, it could simplify the procedure and reduce antibiotic use.
