Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
For this purpose, we will use the Block Randomization block method. In this method, we prepare four paper sheets. On the two letters "C" means "Curcuma Longa" (intervention group) and we write two letters of the letter "N" meaning "Normal Saline" (control group). We mix the sheets together. Then, by random selection of the sheets, the Turmeric and Normal Saline spray from one to one hundred and twenty will be numbered respectively. The drug code will be covered by researchers until the end of the study. By referring to each patient, we choose one of the vials randomly and deliver it to the patient. The scientist who will deliver the medication to the patient and the patient interviewer will not be aware of the type of medication used. Then, the data collected by the C, N codes (these codes refer to Turmeric spray and Normal Saline, and the analyzer does not know how to assign the codes to the drugs), will enter the statistical software version 16 and will be analyzed. After the data is analyzed and the results are finalized, the drug code is decoded and the effect of each drug will be identified and recorded.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Triple blinded
Blinding description
In this study, the shape of both sprays (Curcumin and placebo) was identical and randomly Quadrupled randomized blocks were randomly assigned. Spray distributors (researchers) and patients and the person who performs statistical analysis do not know the nature of the substance in the spray. After analyzing the data and identifying the results, the drug code is decoded and the effect of each drug will be identified and recorded. Therefore, this study is done in a three blind randomized clinical trial.
