Study sample Power calculations were used to determine the sample size. A 1300-patient sample would demonstrate a 10% absolute difference (0.01 significance, 90% power), and have an evens chance of identifying a 5% difference at the 0.05 significance level. A total of 1,307 patients were eligible for inclusion in the study. A total of 654 patients were randomly included in the intervention group, and 653 were randomly allocated to the control group
