Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	BASIS OF PRESENTATION General Information Management believes the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments, including normal recurring items, considered necessary to fairly present the financial position of Stryker Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries ("Stryker," the "Company," "we," "us" or "our") on September 30, 2025 and the results of operations for the three and nine months 2025. The results of operations included in these Consolidated Financial Statements may not necessarily be indicative of our annual results. These statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2024. New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In September 2025 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2025-07 (Topics 815 and 606): Derivatives and Hedging: Derivatives Scope Refinements and Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Scope Clarification for Share-Based Noncash Consideration from a Customer in a Revenue Contract. This update expands the scope exception in Topic 815 to certain non- exchange-traded contracts for which settlement is based on operations or activities specific to one of the parties to the contract. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating if the ASU will have an impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements. In September 2025 the FASB issued ASU 2025-06 (Subtopic 350-40): Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software: Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal- Use Software. This update clarifies and modernizes the accounting for costs related to internal-use software by removing all references to project stages and clarifying that the probable- to-complete threshold is not met if significant development uncertainty exists. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027 including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating if the ASU will have an impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements. In July 2025 the FASB issued ASU 2025-05 (Topic 326): Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. This update provides a practical expedient allowing entities to assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date will remain unchanged for the remaining life of the asset when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounting for under Accounting Standards Codification 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025 including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating if the ASU will have an impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements. In November 2024 the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 (Subtopic 220-40): Income Statement: Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures which requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The new disclosure requirements are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating these new expanded disclosure requirements. In December 2023 the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 (Topic 740): Income Taxes: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures which expands the existing rules on income tax disclosures. This update requires entities to disclose specific categories in the tax rate reconciliation, provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold and disclose additional information about income taxes paid on an annual basis. The new disclosure requirements are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and we will adopt this ASU in the fourth quarter 2025. We evaluate all ASUs issued by the FASB for consideration of their applicability. ASUs not included in our disclosures were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are not expected to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
