Summary

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 motor imagery based on action observation treatment in the rehabilitation of patients with dysphagia in Wallenberg syndrome. * apply functional near infrared spectroscopy to explore the mechanism of action of this therapy. Participants received conventional dysphagia treatment and motor imagery based on action observation treatment once a day for 14 days. Researchers compared the control group to see the effect and mechanism of motor imagery based on action observation treatment.

Detailed description

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 motor imagery based on action observation treatment in the rehabilitation of patients with dysphagia in Wallenberg syndrome. * apply functional near infrared spectroscopy to explore the mechanism of action of this therapy. Both groups received conventional dysphagia treatment, and the experimental group underwent the addition of motor imagery based on action observation treatment to the control group once a day for 14 days. Overall swallowing function was assessed before treatment and after 14 days of intervention. Meanwhile, the functional near infrared spectroscopy was used to detect changes in cerebral hemodynamics during the execution of volitional swallowing task and swallowing motor imagery.

Conditions

• Lateral Medullary Syndrome
• Deglutition Disorders

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	conventional dysphagia treatment	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, and low-frequency electrical stimulation of swallowing neuromusculature, etc., 30 min each time, once a day for 14 consecutive days.
OTHER	motor imagery based on action observation treatment	First, the therapist explained the purpose and principle of the intervention method to the patient, keeping the surrounding environment quiet and comfortable to avoid the patient's mood fluctuations due to external interference. Then start the treatment, the video recorded in advance was given to the patient to watch, the playback device is a ipad. The content includes lip and tongue muscle relaxation exercises, healthy people eating, chewing, swallowing, drinking and other images. At the same time, the guidance was played, which was consistent with the content in the video. The video was played 3 times consecutively for 30 min each time, once a day for 14 days.
