When an emergency strikes, we’re with you. In the field, in the hospital, and in your community, Stryker solutions offer the best chance for survival. It’s that simple.

We set the standard for excellence in emergency medical care.

More than 60 years ago, Dr. Karl William Edmark introduced the world’s first portable defibrillator – launching an industry that changed the way we respond to life-threatening medical emergencies. Today, this legacy of innovation continues as part of Stryker.
