Primary Outcome Measures:
- Average daily narcotic consumption (oxycodone mg) [ Time Frame: week-1 post surgery ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Average, daily, patient-reported narcotic consumption (converted to oxycodone equivalents in mg) during Week 1.
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Average daily narcotic consumption (oxycodone mg) [ Time Frame: Weeks 2-6 post surgery ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Average, daily, patient-reported narcotic consumption during Weeks 2-6
- Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) pain [ Time Frame: Weeks 2-6 post surgery ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Daily VAS pain (daily "current" and "maximum") during Week 1, VAS pain (daily "current" and "maximum") during Weeks 2-6
- Patient-reported general health-related quality of life score (EQ-5D) [ Time Frame: On the last day of Weeks 1-6 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]The EQ-5D will be completed by the subject on the last day of each week (Weeks 1-6)
- Adverse Events [ Time Frame: Weeks 1-6 post surgery ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Adverse events will be recorded daily following randomization and analyzed for confirmation of device safety

Active Comparator: Ivivi Torino II
Active treatment with Non-thermal Pulsed Radio Frequency device
|
Device: Ivivi Torino II
Emits a PRF generated specific electromagnetic signal consisting of a 27.12 MHz radio frequency carrier pulse-modulated with a burst duration of 3 milliseconds repeating at 2 times per second (2Hza0>

Sham Comparator: Inactive Sham
Sham treatment
|
Device: Inactive Sham device
The inactive control device (Sham) identical to the Active device with the exception that a PRF signal is not delivered.
