A list of random numbers generated then by using a block randomization method with 4 block size, anonymized patient list encoded. The codes are written on an envelope and the group type (intervention or comparison) is placed on paper inside the envelope. These envelopes are stacked in order. At the time of enrollment of each patient who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria, the upper envelope is removed, and based on the code inside it, it is determined which group it belongs to.
