Randomization description
In this study, no patient will be aware of their group and a random sequence will be performed, and the method of using randomly coded boxes will be used. In this method, a number of boxes selected by the researcher as the first group and the same number of boxes for the next groups are considered; Then, by merging the boxes together, a box is taken out and its allocation is recorded, and that box is returned to the other boxes after being taken out. The boxes are then reassembled and another box is removed. This process continues until a random sequence according to the sample size is reached. Thus, patients will be divided into three groups: geranium essential oil (group 1), lemon essential oil (group 2) and control group (sweet almond oil - group 3).
