[Abstract] Objective To explore the effect study of virtual reality training on the rehabilitation treatment of cognitive dysfunction after cerebral infarction. Methods Eighty patients with cognitive dysfunction after cerebral infarction in our hospital from January 2019 to January 2020 were selected as the study subjects. They were randomly divided into two groups using the number table method. The control group was given regular rehabilitation training, and the observation group was given VR training on the basis of the control group. The Montreal Cognitive Scale (MoCA), the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores, the Activity of Daily Living Scale (Barthel Index) and the event related potential P300 examination results of the two groups before and after training were compared. Results After training, the scores of the two groups of MoCA scales were significantly increased, and the observation group was significantly higher than the control group (P<0.05). After training, the NIHSS scores of the two groups decreased significantly, and the Barthel index increased significantly. After training, the two scores of the observation group were better than those of the control group (P<0.05). After training, the P300 latency of the two groups decreased significantly, and the amplitude increased significantly, and the observation group was better than the control group after treatment (P<0.05). Conclusion VR training can effectively improve the cognitive function of patients with cognitive dysfunction after infarction, reduce the degree of neurological deficits, and improve mobility.
