    Abstract: An improved condom-style vacuum therapy device has a region of the sheath formed of an air-permeable material that is covered by an air-impermeable barrier so as to define a lumen therebetween. A conduit defining an airflow pathway is located in fluid communication with the lumen, and is connected to a vacuum source in order to draw air out of the interior of the condom-style device through the air-permeable region. When the condom-style device is worn over the penis, a sealing element proximate to the open end serves to at least partially restrict the intrusion of ambient air into the condom. As a result, the air pressure within the sheath of the condom is reduced to below ambient air pressure, serving to prevent or treat actual or potential erectile disfunction and/or to enhance sexual performance, while also providing the prophylactic and/or contraceptive benefits associated with condom use.
