Unter dem Titel “Epidemiology and treatment barriers of patients with erectile dysfunction using an online prescription platform: a cross-sectional study” (2020) veröffentlicht Spring in einer Forschungskooperation mit der Ludwig-Maximilian-Universität München die weltweit erste wissenschaftliche Studie zur Erkrankung der erektilen Dysfunktion auf Basis telemedizinischer Daten. Die Studie wird von dem renommierten Fachjournal Sexual Medicine publiziert.
"Diese Studie geht weit über die epidemiologische Charakterisierung der Patientenkohorte mit erektiler Dysfunktion von Spring hinaus. Sie zeigt anhand der wissenschaftlichen Auswertung von medizinischen Daten von ca. 11.000 Patienten, wie online Plattformen die Versorgungsforschung auf ein höheres Niveau katapultieren können. Zukünftig werden wir weitere Studien mit weit höheren Patientenzahlen durchführen, um ein detailliertes Verständnis zur Effektivität und Sicherheit der von unseren Ärzten eingesetzten Behandlungen für unterschiedliche Risikogruppen generieren zu können. Des Weiteren arbeiten wir daran die Patienten zu identifizieren, die trotz einer ersten Versorgung durch eine Online-Verschreibungs-Plattform (OPP) einen Termin bei einem ortsansässigen Arzt wahrnehmen sollten."

Ziel der Studie:
Probanden:
Datenerhebung:
"Die Studie zeigt, dass ca. ⅔ der Patienten, die Spring bisher zur Behandlung ihrer erektilen Dysfunktion genutzt haben, erstmals eine wirksame Therapie für ihre Erkrankung erhalten haben. Online Plattformen sind insbesondere bei schambehafteten Erkrankungen sinnvoll, da hier den Menschen ein sicherer und legaler Zugang zu Therapien ermöglicht wird, den sie sonst möglicherweise nicht erhalten oder gesucht hätten."
Dr. Johannes von Büren, Medical Director Spring
Telemedizinische Plattformen wie Spring stellen eine völlig neuartige Quelle der Versorgungsforschung dar. Die in Echtzeit systematisch erhobenen Daten unterstützen verschiedenen Stakeholder dabei, die medizinische Versorgung nachhaltig und kontinuierlich zu optimieren:
"Mit bereits 40.000 Behandlungen ist es unser Ziel, gemeinsam mit dem medizinischen Beirat von Spring die führende Forschungsplattform für Real World Data in Europa zu werden - zum Vorteil des einzelnen Patienten aber auch der deutschen Versorgungsforschung."

Under the title "Epidemiology and treatment barriers of patients with erectile dysfunction using an online prescription platform: a cross-sectional study" (2020), Spring is publishing the world's first scientific study on erectile dysfunction based on telemedical data in a research collaboration with the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich. The study is published by the renowned journal “Sexual Medicine”.
"This study goes far beyond the epidemiological characterization of Spring's erectile dysfunction patient cohort. Based on the scientific analysis of medical data from around 11,000 patients, it shows how online platforms can catapult healthcare research to a higher level. In the future, we will conduct further studies with much higher patient numbers to gain a detailed understanding of the effectiveness and safety of treatments used by our physicians for different risk groups. We are also working to identify patients who should make an appointment with a local doctor despite initial OPP care."
Dr. Johannes von Büren, Medical Director Spring
Study Objective:
Subjects:
Data Collection:
"The study shows that approximately ⅔ of the patients who have used Spring to treat their erectile dysfunction so far have received effective therapy for their condition for the first time. Online platforms are particularly useful for embarassing conditions, as they provide people with safe and legal access to therapies that they might not otherwise have received or sought".
Dr. Johannes von Büren, Medical Director Spring
Telemedicine platforms like Spring represent a completely novel source of healthcare research. The data, systematically collected in real time, supports various stakeholders in sustainably and continuously optimizing medical care:
"With 40,000 treatments already underway, it is our goal, together with Spring's Medical Advisory Board, to become the leading research platform for Real-World Data in Europe - for the benefit of the individual patient but also for German healthcare research."
