DJO is an American medical device company headquartered in Lewisville, Texas, that produces a variety of orthopedic products for rehabilitation, pain management, and physical therapy.

[1][2][3][4] DJO began in 1978 as DonJoy, a small company founded in a Carlsbad, California garage by the Philadelphia Eagles’ offensive line captain, Mark Nordquist and a local lawyer, Ken Reed.

It was revealed that individuals who had received a DJO Global product while being treated at the Siena, San Martin, or De Lima campuses of St. Rose Dominican Hospital in Las Vegas, Nevada, between July 17, 2017, and October 16, 2017, might have encountered issues with their personal data.

In compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), DJO Global took steps to notify the affected individuals through their official website.

The handling and potential loss of these PPA forms raised concerns regarding patient privacy and data protection, leading to scrutiny and questions about DJO Global's internal processes for safeguarding sensitive information.
