Support for Conducting Clinical Research: Investigator-Initiated Studies (IIS) Program at Stryker Medical

Physician and nurse investigators wishing to conduct research using our products can request support through our Investigator-Initiated Studies (IIS) Program. Click the following links for products within the Stryker Acute Care, Emergency Care Transport, and Sage product portfolios. 

The IIS Program is open to qualified clinical investigators who are interested in independently planning, designing, sponsoring, executing, and publishing their own research. Support may include funding and/or product support for original clinical research in mutually beneficial therapeutic areas.

Current areas of interest include:

  • Pressure injury prevention
  • Surgical site infection (SSI) prevention
  • Comprehensive oral care
  • Early patient mobility
  • Safe patient handling/injury prevention
  • Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs)
  • Urine management
  • Targeted temperature management

Proposals may be initiated by submitting the Investigator-Initiated Studies Request for Support Form (IISRSF) below. After submission, you may be contacted by a Clinical Affairs team member to collect additional information or questions. Your proposal will then undergo formal review, and Clinical Affairs will notify you of the support decision.
