      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Random allocation will be done by Stratified Permuted Block Randomization method. Stratification is done based on the NPO variable. Eligible people who meet the criteria for entering the study, are selected, and then the two groups are randomly divided into 4 or 6 intervention blocks at a ratio of 1:1. Then, the list of blocks is divided equally between the two strata. Block randomization (4 or 6 people in each block) is done using the website www.randomization.com. In this way, the letters A and B will be spread between the patient codes. Numbers will be assigned to patients according to the order of participants' entry, and patients will be enrolled in the study based on special letters (A and B), Blinding description: Blinding of patients: due to the fact that in this study, the patients are children under 12 years old and usually do not have optimal GCS, people in each group do not know the type of intervention.
In order to blind the researcher, the probiotic supplements and placebo will be delivered to the supervisor by the bio-fermentation company. Probiotic and placebo supplements are similar in appearance and packaging.</study_design>
