Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
The way to select groups is that they will be assigned to groups based on block randomization. Blocks of size 4 are considered. So we will have six blocks containing AABB, ABAB, BBAA, BABA, ABBA, BAAB. Each block will also be randomly selected using a dice throw. For example, if thrown dice is 3, the BBAA block is considered, and therefore the first two patients are assigned to treatment B and the next two patients to treatment A. The dice will be thrown 20 times to complete the assignment of patients to the treatment groups. randomization is performed using the DOE option in MINITAB ver 15 software.
