Randomization description
The method of allocating samples in groups is in the form of four random blocks without permutation. The letter A for the control group and the letter B are considered for the test group. Different modes of two groups (ABBA-BABA-ABAB-BAAB-BBAA-AABB) are written on six cards. Each card is placed in a sealed envelope. These envelopes are placed in a box and the researcher does not know in which group the research units will be located until the card is selected. A person who is not aware of the study and the groups, by selecting one of the envelopes from the box, determines in which group the patients will be located. This process is continued until all six cards are taken out of the box and the cards are returned to the box and this random selection is repeated to provide the desired sample size.
