Which dose of anesthesia gets you home soonest after knee surgery?
NCT ID NCT06703580
First seen Feb 14, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 150 adults having knee arthroscopy to see which dose of a short-acting spinal anesthetic (prilocaine) allows patients to urinate and go home fastest. Participants received one of three doses (40, 50, or 60 mg). The goal is to improve day-surgery recovery by reducing time to first void and other side effects.
