title: Home monitoring of penile tumescence for erectile dysfunction. Initial experience.
abstract: A technique using nocturnal penile tumescence monitoring has been developed to gather objective data on an outpatient basis. Patients have readily accepted the procedure and have easily learned to operate the monitor. Data from this group of controls and subjects are consistent with previously published reports by others. Suggestions are made from possible further refinements in technique.
