Abstract:
This study aimed to show what role biomedical engineering can play in sexual health. A new concept of sexological ontology, an essential tool for building evidence-based models of sexual health, is proposed. This ontology should be based on properly validated mathematical models of sexual reactions identified using reliable measurements of physiological signals. This paper presents a review of the recommended measurement methods. Moreover, a general human sexual reaction model based on dynamic systems built at different levels of time × space × detail is presented, and the actual used modeling approaches are reviewed, referring to the introduced model. Lastly, examples of devices and computer programs designed for sexual therapy are described, indicating the need for legal regulation of their manufacturing, similar to that for other medical devices.
