The Motil algorithm

Tailoring ED treatment with the LSTC-ED® technique: suggested number of shockwaves

This algorithm is the first of its kind and suggests the optimal number of shockwaves (and therefore energy dose) to be applied to the erectile tissue during a single session to successfully treat erectile dysfunction with low intensity focused shockwaves.

The algorithm was created under the responsibility of Dr Igor Motil / Brno based on his extensive experience and studies on this type of treatment. The aim was to improve treatment outcomes by tailoring the treatment to each individual patient. The algorithm takes into account important factors that may influence treatment outcomes, such as the patient’s initial IIEF-5 score and comorbidities. However, it should be emphasised that medical science is still evolving and Dr Motil reserves the right to make changes in the future.

This LSTC-ED algorithm is for use only with Richard Wolf / ELvation PiezoWave² shockwave systems in conjunction with the FBL10x5G2 linear therapy source. We do not recommend using this algorithm with other devices that have very different shockwave shapes, shockwave generation and applied energy.
