Randomization description
With simple randomization and using a random number table and individual randomization unit. To randomize, we use a table consisting of random digits 0 to 9. Each digit of this table is repeated the same on average. There is no pattern of recognizable numbers. In this method, each number is assigned to a treatment group. We start from the first line of the table and move down line by line. For the two treatments, we put the numbers 0 to 4 for treatment A and the numbers 5 to 9 for treatment B. The numbers in the first line of the table are as follows: 0,5,2,7,8,4,3,7,4,1,6,8,3,8,5,1,5,6,9,6, ... Now for people based on the above numbers, we have the following allocation: A, B, A, B, B,... We will continue the above process until the two groups are completed.
