Opioid addiction in post-operative patients is recognized but not fully understood; therefore, in order to address this growing crisis, it is essential to explore alternative approaches to managing pain and apply them to the surgical population. One potential non-opioid method of pain relief is the use of the nCAP Nano Patch, placed topically on the site of pain. The objective of this study is to investigate the efficacy of the nCAP Signal Relief Patch in reducing the perioperative opioid requirement in patients undergoing primary unilateral total hip or knee replacement surgery.
After signing an informed consent, subjects will complete the PROMIS Emotional Distress - Anxiety - Short Form 8a before completing any other questionnaires. Subjects who have a raw score <19 will be enrolled in the study. Any subject who scores ≥ 19 will be considered a screen failure and excluded from the study.
Once the subject is enrolled, in the pre-operative holding area they will be asked to complete the Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS), the PROMIS® Emotional Distress-Depression - Short Form 8a, and the PROMIS® Item Bank v1.0 - Sleep- Disturbance - Short Form 8a prior to surgery. The subject will also conduct a baseline functionality test to assess mobility and strength in their leg. The functional recovery will be assessed by determining the patient ability to walk 100 feet, go up 5 steps and raise their leg on the day of surgery. Scores can be 0 (no ability to raise the leg), 1 (some ability to raise the leg), and 2 (complete ability to raise the leg). These assessments will take approximately 15 minutes to complete.
Once these assessments are completed, subjects will be equally randomized to the intervention group (nCAP Signal Relief Patch + standard of care) or control group (standard of care). Both the control group and intervention group will receive approved ERAS multimodal standard of care. Only the interventional group will receive an nCAP Signal Relief Patch. Randomization will occur by assigning the participant a subject ID number, and this ID number will correspond to a treatment allocation based on a pre-designed randomization schema.
Subjects will undergo surgery using the approved ERAS anesthetic and post-operative pain management protocols.
After surgery, the subjects randomized to the intervention group will have the nCAP Signal Relief patch applied to their surgical dressing by a trained researcher in the immediate Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU). Subjects will be made aware at the time of consent and throughout the trial that they can drop out of the study at any time if they do not like wearing the nCAP Signal Relief Patch. The control group will not receive a patch but will receive the standard of care ERAS protocol. Subjects in the intervention group will be instructed to keep the nCAP Signal Relief Patch on their surgical dressing to avoid the risk for skin irritation.
Pain using a Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) at rest and with movement as well as opioid requirement will be assessed in the PACU and daily until discharge.
Subjects assigned to the intervention group should keep the nCAP Signal Relief Patch in place for 72 hours on their surgical dressing and they will be instructed to remove it at home.
Once the subject is discharged, they will be contacted via email (REDCAP survey) on post-operative day 1, 2, 3, 7, 14, and 30 to record postoperative opioid consumption, non-opioid consumption, NRS pain at rest and with movement, pain catastrophizing (via Pain Catastrophizing Scale) sleep quality (via PROMIS Sleep Disturbance Short Form 8a) and to assess functional recovery. Functional recovery will be assessed by determining the patient ability to walk 100 feet, go up 5 steps and raise their leg on postoperative days 1, 2, 3, 7, 14, and 30 as well as the pain associated with it. Patient satisfaction with pain management after surgery will be assessed at the 30 day follow up (0- least satisfied to 10-most satisfied). Subjects who are contacted via REDCap to complete follow-up questionnaires and do not complete them on the day they are assigned will be contacted via telephone for a reminder. They will be considered lost to follow up after 3 phone attempts.
Information will be collected from the medical record, including: patient demographics, medical history, medication summary while in the hospital, as well as progress notes from the entire encounter to determine the existence of adverse events.

This is reported in consumption of oral morphine mg equivalents (OME) from the day of surgery up to day 30 post-operative.

| Pre-operative Emotional Distress Related to Anxiety | Pre-operative emotional distress related to anxiety will be measured by assessment of participant's answers to the PROMIS Emotional Distress -Anxiety- Short Form 8a questionnaire prior to surgery. There are 8 questions about how the participants may have felt in the past 7 days. The scale for each question is from 1, never felt this way in the past 7 days, to 5, always have felt this way in the past 7 days. The overall questionnaire scores can range from 8 (least severe score) to 40 (most severe score). Higher T-scores present a worse outcome for anxiety. For the adult PROMIS Anxiety 8a short form values reported, the participants raw scores are converted to T-scores and then averaged. |

| PROMIS - Anxiety questionnaire | PROMIS (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System) - Anxiety questionnaire raw scores were converted to T-score. PROMIS, measures use a T-score metric in which 50 is the mean of a relevant reference population and 10 is the standard deviation (SD) of that population. For PROMIS measures, higher scores equals more of the concept being measured, for instance, higher anxiety. Thus a score of 60 is one standard deviation above the average referenced population. T-score of 60-70 is considered moderate levels of anxiety, and >70 is considered severe levels of anxiety. | Mean | Standard Deviation | T-score |
