Conditions

• Wallenberg Syndrome

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	Virtual Reality Therapy	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.
BEHAVIORAL	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, etc., 30 min each time, once a day for 14 consecutive days.
