Appendix
Other Indications
The ED1000 system can function as a multi-purpose
treatment system for Urologists, treating
Erectile Dysfunction as well as CPPS and
Peyronie’s Disease using one system only !
A Complete Shockwave Solution For Urologists
Inflammation of the prostate gland that may Result in pain during
urination and Sexual malfunction
CPPS (Choric Pelvic Pain Syndrome) Definition
Suggested Protocol
• 300 shocks per location (total of 2400
shocks per treatment)
• 8 locations (2 over the penile crura;
6 over the prostate)
• 6 sessions
• Total 14,400 shocks / patient
CPPS - Treatment Methods
Week 1 Week 2 Week 3
The suggested mechanism of effect is the analgesic effect; It can
significantly improve the patients' quality of life, due to
alleviation in pain
CPPS Suggested Treatment Effect
A connective tissue disorder involving the growth of fibrous
plaques in the soft tissue of the penis affecting up to 10% of men
Peyronie’s Disease Definition
Suggested Protocol - TBA
• XXX shocks per location (total of XXX
shocks per treatment)
• XXX locations
• XXX sessions
• Total XXX shocks / patient
Peyronie’s Disease - Treatment Methods
EDSWT can significantly improve quality of life for these patients
as pain is relieved
Peyronie’s Disease Suggested Treatment Effect
Clinical Results

EDSWT Clinical information
• Double Blind Study -
• Non-responders -
• Two Years follow up -
Double Blind Study
Non-Responders Study
1. 72.4 % of patients converted from non responders to PDE5i
therapy - to responders
2. For 75.9% patients IIEF ED Domain scores change by 5 points and more
Non Responders Study Results
72%
2 Years Follow-Up Study Results
24 month follow-up results show that ED patients can have sexual
intercourse – unachievable for them before EDSWT treatment

24 month follow-up results
• 5 subjects did not respond to the treatment protocol
• 15 patients improved ED domain >5 points
• 7 of them improved ED domain ≥ 10 points
• 5 use PDE5-I occasionally
• 10 patients stopped PDE5-I Treatment

This technological advantage allows for 2 major benefits:
1. Less painful for the patient (in comparison to concentrating the
pressure in the center of the focal zone
2. Larger focal zone enables a larger treatment area
Patented Applicator
Adjustable Voltage Stabilizer:
The ED1000 automatically adjusts the voltage in order to
stabilize pressure during treatments
The Ideal Treatment Definition
Recently, the use of low-intensity extracorporeal shock wave therapy was proposed as a
novel treatment for ED (93). In the first randomised, double-blind, sham-controlled study,
it was demonstrated that low-intensity extracorporeal shock wave therapy had a positive
short-term clinical and physiological effect on the erectile function of men who respond
to oral PDE5Is (94). Moreover, there are preliminary data showing improvement in penile
hemodynamics and endothelial function, as well as IIEF-EF domain score in severe ED
patients who are poor responders to PDE5Is (95).The feasibility and tolerability of this
treatment, coupled with its potential rehabilitative characteristics, make it an attractive
new therapeutic option for men with ED. However, current data are limited and clear
recommendations cannot be given. Data regarding the mechanism of action of this
procedure are still lacking. In a diabetic rat model, low-intensity extracorporeal shock
wave therapy ameliorated diabetes mellitus associated ED by promoting regeneration of
nNOS-positive nerves, endothelium, and smooth muscle in the penis. These beneficial
effects appear to be mediated by recruitment of endogenous mesechymal stem cells
(MSCs) (96).
