Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Does hyperosmolarity contribute to transient radicular irritation after spinal anesthesia with hyperbaric 5 % lidocaine?
Answer: The results suggest that transient radicular irritation did not result from the marked hyperosmolarity of the hyperbaric 5% lidocaine. However, because lidocaine and bupivacaine were not administered at equipotent dosages, the relative potential for both drugs to induce transient radicular irritation remains to be determined.
Output (English): no
