NCT ID NCT07661628
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study will look at how well prilocaine works as a spinal anesthetic for people having knee arthroscopy as outpatients. Researchers will measure how fast sensation and movement return, how soon patients can walk and go home, and how often side effects like nausea or trouble urinating happen. The goal is to see if prilocaine offers a faster, safer recovery compared to other anesthetics.
