      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Not blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: In this study, random assignment of patients to the intervention and control groups will be carried out using block randomization. To achieve this, four sheets of paper will be prepared - two with the name of the intervention and two with the name of the control. These paper sheets will be pooled and placed in a container. Patients will be selected one at a time without replacement, and for each patient, a paper sheet will be randomly drawn from the container. After each draw, the paper sheets will be returned to the container, and the process will be repeated until the desired sample size is reached.</study_design>
