Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
Random assignment of the patients to the intervention and control groups through the drawing of lots. To do this, we prepare two sheets and write "intervention" on one sheet and "control" on another. Then, by referring each patient, one of the sheets will be randomly taken and the patient will be assigned to the intervention or control group.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Single blinded
Blinding description
The physician who will examine the patients will not be aware of the intervention. Thus, the trial will be run as single-blind.
