- The IIEF-5 scale is used to assess patients with erectile dysfunction to determine the extent of the erectile function in patients.
- The full-scale 15-item version has five domains: erectile function, orgasmic function, sexual desire, intercourse satisfaction and overall sexual satisfaction.
- The shortened 5-item version is on a scale of 5 to 25:
- 22-25: No erectile dysfunction
- 17-21: Mild erectile dysfunction
- 12-16: Mild to moderate erectile dysfunction
- 8-11: Moderate erectile dysfunction
- 5-7: Severe erectile dysfunction
Clinical Considerations
The IIEF-5 can be utilized as part of the evaluation of erectile dysfunction.
