Stryker Mako

Analyst brief

The record contains three entries spanning 2018 to 2024, all recalls, with severity ranging from 2 to 3: a 2024 Class II software recall for an error causing loss of robotic function, a 2022 Class II recall of tracking hardware, and a 2018 implant-related lawsuit. The entries recur across both software and hardware subsystems of the same robotic platform over a six-year span, indicating a repeated pattern rather than a single incident. The index of 65.6 and 99.4th percentile place the company at the top of the medical-robotics category, the highest standing among the medical-robotics entities in this set. The record is dominated by manufacturer-initiated Class II corrections rather than fatalities or regulator-driven warning actions.
