Sponsor: Babujinaya Cela
Summary
This is a randomized controlled study, including dysphagic patients with Parkinson's syndrome who were received in the department of rehabilitation medicine. All patients are randomly allocated to the observation group or the control group. Both groups are provided with comprehensive rehabilitation.

Comprehensive rehabilitation
The study lasted 10d for each patient. During the treatment, All the participants were provided with the rehabilitation therapy, which included routine rehabilitation, cognitive training, swallowing function training.
Stellate ganglion block
Based on the invention above, the patients in the observation group were provided with Stellate ganglion block , using 1.5ml of 2% Lidocaine hydrochloride (1ml: 0.5mg) and 500ug of Vitamin B12 (1ml: 0.5g). The percutaneous approach via the paratracheal route was used for Stellate ganglion block . The operator stood on the side of the block, instructed the patient to lie supine with a thin pillow placed below the shoulders, and tilted the head 45° towards the blocked side, fully exposing the neck. Then, routine disinfection of the neck skin was performed. The puncture site was located 2.5 cm above the sternoclavicular joint and 1.5 cm lateral to the midline of the neck.

Placebo injection
1 milliliter of normal saline will be used for injection. The percutaneous approach via the paratracheal route was used for Stellate ganglion block .
