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.
