Area of Science:

Nursing
Sexual Health
Urology

Background:

Sexual health is integral to overall well-being.
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common sexual disorder impacting many individuals.
The specific roles of nurses in ED care require further exploration.

Purpose of the Study:

To systematically review and delineate the general and specific roles of registered nurses (RNs) and nurse practitioners (NPs) in managing patients with ED.
To identify key responsibilities within the nursing scope of practice for ED patient care.

Main Methods:

A mixed-methods systematic review was conducted.
Searches were performed across multiple databases including PubMed, Embase, and Google Scholar.
Data from 14 studies (12 quantitative, 2 qualitative) were critically appraised and synthesized.

Main Results:

Five core nursing responsibilities in ED care were identified: risk assessment, needs clarification/diagnosis, education, treatment facilitation/provision, and continuous monitoring.
RNs excel in initial assessment, problem identification, health promotion, and treatment adherence support.
NPs specialize in diagnostics, counseling, treatment, laboratory monitoring, and interdisciplinary collaboration.

Conclusions:

RNs and NPs employ a multidisciplinary approach, with distinct yet complementary roles in ED management.
Enhanced education and training are crucial for both RNs and NPs to improve ED care competency.
Strengthening nursing roles is essential for comprehensive and effective multidisciplinary ED team care.
