The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about on dysphagia in wallenberg syndrome. The main questions it aims to answer are: the efficacy of Virtual Reality Therapy in the rehabilitation of patients with dysphagia in Wallenberg syndrome. Participants received conventional dysphagia treatment and Virtual Reality Therapy once a day for 14 days. Researchers compared the control group to see the effect and mechanism of Virtual Reality Therapy.
Virtual Reality technology has revolutionized various fields, and its application in rehabilitation medicine is particularly noteworthy. Virtual Reality provides immersive environments that simulate real-life situations, making it an invaluable tool in the rehabilitation process.

The therapist begins by assessing the patient's swallowing abilities and creating a personalized treatment plan. This involves determining the appropriate Virtual Reality Therapy scenarios, difficulty levels, and specific swallowing goals tailored to the patient's condition.
Conventional dysphagia treatment included oropharyngeal muscle movement training, orofacial alternating hot and cold stimulation, Masako swallowing training, Mendelsohn maneuver, therapeutic ingestion training, intermittent oral-esophageal tube feeding, etc., 30 min each time, once a day for 14 consecutive days.
standardized swallowing assessment
The standardized swallowing assessment was used to assess the improvement of overall swallowing function, it has a maximum score of 46 and a minimum score of 18, with lower scores indicating better swallowing function.
Time frame: day 1 and day 14
Murray secretion scale
The severity of Murray secretion scale was measured using a grade of 0-3, patients without obvious saliva accumulation are scored as Murray secretion scale grade 0, whereas patients who had secretions in the laryngeal vestibule at the start of the exam were assigned grade 3.
Time frame: day 1 and day 14
penetration-aspiration scale
The highest penetration-aspiration scale score is 8 and the lowest is 1 (1 = no entry of material into the airway; 2 - 5 = penetration of material past the mouse into the supraglottic space and traveling as far as the true vocal folds; 6 - 8 = tracheal aspiration of material below the true vocal folds).
Time frame: day 1 and day 14
swallowing-quality of life
Swallowing-quality of life has a score range of 44 - 220, with lower scores indicating poorer swallowing function and poorer quality of life.
Time frame: day 1 and day 14
