Os pacientes selecionados foram alocados de forma aleatória através da lista de randomização gerada por computador, foram confeccionados envelopes lacrados e opacos utilizados para manter o segredo de alocação. Todos foram submetidos à avaliação inicial (T0), com 20 dias (T20) e com 45 dias (T45), por um avaliador cego.
