Original description

Intervention: Patients who meet all of the following criteria who are randomly assigned to the group using the mediVR Kagura. 1) Patients who have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease at Hoehn & Yahr Classification Stage III 2) Patients who have not required medication adjustments for symptom fluctuations in the past month 3) Patients with a consciousness level of JCS 0-10 and amenable to follow-up 4) Patients who can be intervened in the training room in a wheelchair sitting position 5) Patients with physical dysfunction (ataxia, gait and balance problems, upper limb dysfunction, dysarthria, dysphagia, etc.) or cognitive dysfunction (higher brain dysfunction, attention disorder, hemispatial neglect, etc.) 6) Patients who have obtained written consent for participation in the study from the patient or a surrogate (relative up to the fifth degree of kinship) within 10 days of the start of the intervention in the training room after fulfilling 1)-5) above. Patients who meet all of the following criteria who are randomly assigned to the group that does not use the mediVR Kagura. 1) Patients who have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease at Hoehn & Yahr Classification Stage III 2) Patients who have not required medication adjustments for symptom fluctuations in the past month 3) Patients with a consciousness level of JCS 0-10 and amenable to follow-up 4) Patients who can be intervened in the training room in a wheelchair sitting position 5) Patients with physical dysfunction (ataxia, gait and balance problems, upper limb dysfunction, dysarthria, dysphagia, etc.) or cognitive dysfunction (higher brain dysfunction, attention disorder, hemispatial neglect, etc.) 6) Patients who have obtained written consent for participation in the study from the patient Primary outcome: The following indicators are measured and evaluated at the beginning of rehabilitation in the training room and 2 weeks after the start of rehabilitation. Common assessment measures: Functional Independence Measure (FIM), Stroke impairment Assessment Set (SIAS), 10-meter walk test, Timed up and go test (TUG), Brunnstrom Stages (BRST), Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), Motor Activity Log (MAL), Box and Block Test (BBT), Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Frontal Assessment Battery (FAB), and Trail Making Test (TMT). Patients with ataxia: Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA). Patients with attention disorders: line and star blotting. Patients with dysarthria: Assessment of Motor Speech for Dysarthria (AMSD), Oral diadochokinesis: Scale for Contraversive pushing (SCP). Other measures deemed necessary by the investigator.
