Parkinson’s disease patient plays clarinet during surgery and sees instant results

A woman with Parkinson’s disease has played her clarinet while undergoing brain stimulation, enabling surgeons to see – and hear – immediate results. Denise Bacon, 65, from Crowborough in East Sussex, experienced instant improvement in her finger movements as the electrical current was delivered to her brain. The retired speech and language therapist underwent deep brain stimulation (DBS) after suffering symptoms of Parkinson’s, including slowness of movement (bradykinesia) and muscle stiffness (rigidity). She was diagnosed with the disease in 2014 and it has affected her ability to walk, swim, dance and play her clarinet. During a four-hour operation at King’s College Hospital, Keyoumars Ashkan, a professor of neurosurgery, performed DBS to help relieve symptoms while Ms Bacon stayed awake. DBS is a surgical procedure using electrodes implanted in the brain and is suitable for some patients with disorders such as Parkinson’s. The DBS led to instant results on the operating table. Denise had immediate improvement in her fingers, allowing her to play the clarinet easily.
