prilocaine, intrathecal, day case, arthroscopy, time to void
Brief summary
The goal of this randomised trial is to use a short acting local anaesthetic drug (hyperbaric prilocaine 2%) which is beneficial in short operations which are performed as a day case surgery. in this study the investigators will use 3 different doses of prilocaine 2% (40,50 or 60 mg ) intrathecal (in spinal anaesthesia) in participants undergoing arthroscopy on the knee. the primary outcome is to compare time to micturate (go to the bathroom) between the three groups . the secondary outcomes are: * time to recovery of the motor and sensory block * time to discharge from post anesthesia care unit * any complications ; itching, lowered blood pressure, nausea and vomiting.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Time to void; time from spinal anaesthesia to first void | from time of spinal anaesthesia as a start point till time for the participant to get up and micturate on his own (time to first void) assessed up to 4 hours postoperative | we will measure the time from spinal anaesthesia to first void and compare that in the 3 groups with different doses of hyperbaric prilocaine 2% (40,50 and 60 mg) to see which group has the least time to void and so early ambulation in a day case surgery of knee arthroscopy. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Motor block regression time | The motor block will be assessed 10 min after intrathecal injection as a start point and every 30 minutes until recovery of full motor power (bromage 0) up to 4 hours postoperative | Motor block will be measured by using modified bromage score, 0 = no motor block; 1 = unable to lift the extended leg in the hips; 2 = unable to flex hips and knees but still able to flex ankles; 3 = complete motor block of the lower extremity. |
| sensory regression time | sensory regression time will be measured 10 minutes after intrathecal block (as a start point) and then every 30 minutes until regression to two dermatomes intra-operative and until 4 hours post-operative. | sensory regression time will be assessed thermally with an ice- filled plastic tube and by using wooden toothpick. |
| heart rate | heart rate will be measured in the form of beats /min from the start of operation and every 5 minutes till the end of operation | — |
| mean arterial pressure | mean arterial pressure (MAP) will be measured in mmhg every 5 minutes from the start of operation till the end of operation | — |
| Incidence of complications | incidence of complications will be recorded from the start of operation till discharge from post anaesthesia care unit (PACU) assessed up to 4 hours | incidence of hypotension, bradycardia, nausea, vomiting , headache or pruritis if it occurred or not ( as a yes or no) |
| Time to discharge from post operative anaesthesia unit (PACU) | time will be recorded from the start of operation till discharge of the participant from PACU after reaching Aldrete score of 10 (up to 4 hours postoperative) | — |
