Summary

This study follows 100 men aged 30-75 who had a heart procedure called PCI (stent placement) to open blocked arteries. Researchers want to see how erectile function changes over 6 months, comparing those who had a heart attack to those with stable chest pain. Participants fill out a simple questionnaire at 1, 3, and 6 months after the procedure. The goal is to learn whether a heart attack itself affects sexual health beyond the procedure.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help doctors understand how heart attacks affect erectile function after PCI, potentially guiding better counseling and care for patients.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study with only 100 participants, so results may not apply to all men. It measures changes via questionnaires, not treatments, so no direct health benefit is guaranteed.

Who is studied

The study population will consist of adult male patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for either acute myocardial infarction or stable angina at the Cardiology Department of Kırıkkale University Hospital. Eligible participants will be recruited consecutively after successful PCI and clinical stabilization. The study represents a hospital-based, observational cohort reflecting the typical male population undergoing PCI in a tertiary referral center. All assessments and follow-up visits will be conducted within the same institution's cardiology and urology outpatient clinics.
