Company overview

Stryker Corporation is a publicly traded medical technology company headquartered in Portage, Michigan. Founded in 1941 by orthopaedic surgeon Homer Stryker, it develops and markets devices, equipment and related technologies across multiple clinical and care settings.

The company reports approximately $25.1 billion in global sales and 56,000 employees for 2025. Its business directory extends beyond joint replacement to surgical equipment, hospital and emergency care, neurovascular and peripheral vascular devices, and other specialized businesses.

The portfolio has changed through acquisitions and divestitures. Stryker completed its acquisition of Inari Medical in February 2025 and sold its U.S. spinal implants business to the newly formed VB Spine in April 2025. Retained navigation and enabling technologies are distinguished from divested implants in this profile.

[1][67][68][69][70]

Portfolio overview

Covers Stryker Corporation and selected manufacturer-branded businesses, including Inari-origin vascular products, as of October 27, 2026. The U.S. spinal implants business sold to VB Spine is excluded. Product snapshots emphasize U.S. documentation and do not establish worldwide availability.

Joint reconstruction and trauma

Hip and knee replacement, trauma fixation, foot and ankle, and sports medicine products. The selected examples distinguish robotic assistance, knee implants, hip cups and tibial fracture fixation. [67][77][75][76][83]

Surgical instruments and visualization

Powered surgical instruments and endoscopic imaging systems. System 9 and the 1788 platform illustrate reusable equipment and visualization without listing their individual components. [80][74]

Acute care and emergency care

Hospital beds, patient handling and emergency response equipment. ProCuity LEX/ZX and LIFEPAK 35 represent distinct hospital and prehospital workflows. [72][73]

Neurovascular intervention

Products for ischemic stroke and aneurysm treatment. Trevo NXT retrieves clot; Surpass Evolve is an implanted flow-diversion system with a different clinical purpose. [79][78]

Peripheral vascular intervention

The Inari acquisition added mechanical thrombectomy technologies, including FlowTriever for pulmonary embolism and ClotTriever for peripheral vessels. FlowTriever is the selected example here. [1][81]

Neurosurgical navigation and broader businesses

Q Guidance provides cranial and spine planning/navigation. Stryker also lists ENT, craniomaxillofacial, Sage, communications, smart care and sustainability businesses. [67][82][70]

Products & regulatory status How does MedTechIndex get this information?

Summary

The selected FDA evidence includes nine 510(k) decisions associated with the displayed families. One of those decisions, K242834, covers the System 9 Sterile Battery Container only. It does not establish clearance of every tool or accessory in that platform. [4][5][6][7][11][12][10][8][9]

Surpass Evolve is documented through PMA supplement P170024/S003, and LIFEPAK 35 through P160026/S040 under Physio-Control. These are product-specific supplement approvals, not two new original PMAs; they are excluded from the original-PMA count. Other FDA records retain applicants such as Howmedica, Mako Surgical and Inari Medical. [3][2][6][4][8]

FDA records report open recall events involving specified Mako components/software, Triathlon components or instruments, ProCuity beds, LIFEPAK products/accessories and Trevo NXT products or kits. The expandable records identify documented events; affected models, lots and corrective actions must be checked in the FDA sources. These findings do not establish that every current model is recalled. [24][18][23][25][29][15][16][21][19][28][13][20][26][27][17][22][14]

Counts are documented minimums. Some recall mappings involve older configurations. ProCuity premarket status and the De Novo review remain unresolved. [72]
