Stryker Corporation (NYSE: SYK) has acquired OtisMed Corporation, a privately held, software technology firm. OtisMed will focus on customizable instrumentation that has the potential to complement the many benefits that surgeons and patients realize from Stryker's Triathlon Knee System, as well as other Stryker implants. OtisMed will operate as part of Stryker's Orthopaedics Division and remain located in Alameda, California.
In addition, Stryker announced it has entered into definitive agreements with Mutoh Co., Ltd., a Japanese company, and certain of its affiliates, and Synergetics USA, Inc.

These products will be incorporated into Stryker's Instruments Division which is headquartered in Kalamazoo, Michigan.
