The Stryker Universal Neuro 3 System is intended for reconstruction, stabilization and/or rigid fixation of non load-bearing areas subsequent to craniotomy, craniectomy and cranial fractures in adults and adolescents (age 12 and higher).
Device Story
Stryker Universal Neuro 3 System provides cranial fixation solutions; includes implant module with various plates (straight, gap, 3D, shunt, box, burr hole covers) and screws. Plates are malleable for manual contouring; low-profile design reduces palpability. Used in clinical settings by surgeons for cranial reconstruction/stabilization. System components are made of titanium; screws feature self-drilling/self-tapping designs. Output is rigid fixation of cranial flaps. Benefits include stabilization of non-load-bearing cranial areas and decreased palpability post-surgery.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Biocompatibility confirmed per ISO 10993-1, 10993-12, and 10993-18. Mechanical testing included bending stability (ASTM F 382-99) for plates/covers and torque, depth, angle, and pull-out safety testing (ASTM F 543) for screws. All acceptance criteria met.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: Commercially Pure Titanium (Grade II, IV, and V). Design: Low-profile plates, burr hole covers, and screws. Standards: ASTM F 382-99 (plates), ASTM F 543 (screws), ISO 10993 (biocompatibility). Surface treatment: Type III Anodization. Connectivity: None (mechanical implant system).
Indications for Use
Indicated for reconstruction, stabilization, and rigid fixation of non-load-bearing bony areas following craniotomy, craniectomy, and cranial fractures in adults and adolescents (age 12+). Contraindicated in non-reducible/unstable fractures, active local infections, metal allergies/foreign body sensitivity, non-compliant patients, poor bone quality/blood supply, or cases where implants/screws contact dura mater or developing paranasal sinuses.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A preformed alterable cranioplasty plate is a device that is implanted into a patient to repair a skull defect. It is constructed of a material, e.g., tantalum, that can be altered or reshaped at the time of surgery without changing the chemical behavior of the material.

### Indications for Use / Intended Use
The Stryker Universal Neuro 3 System is intended for reconstruction, stabilization and/or rigid fixation of non load-bearing areas subsequent to craniotomy, craniectomy and cranial fractures in adults and adolescents (age 12 and higher).
#### Contraindications
The Stryker Universal Neuro 3 System is contraindicated for the following:
- Use of plates in non-reducible and unstable fractures .
- Patients with active local infections .
- Patients with metal allergies and foreign body sensitivity .
{1}------------------------------------------------
- . Potentially non-compliant patients with mental or neurological conditions who are unwilling or incapable of following postoperative care instructions
- . Patients with limited blood supply to, or insufficient quality of, bone
- . Use of products in cases where the fixation of the products could result in their peripheral edge coming into contact with the dura mater
- . Screws coming in contact with the dura mater
- . Use of implants adjacent to developing paranasal sinuses
#### Technological Characteristics
The Stryker Universal Neuro 3 System is designed for a wide selection of solutions for cranial fixation. It consists of an implant module (a storage module that contains various versions and shapes of plates and screws) for the respective anatomical and indicated areas.
The low profile plates of the Stryker Universal Neuro 3 System provide rigid fixation of cranial flaps with decreased palpability. There is a comprehensive selection of burr hole covers, straight plates, gap plates, 3D-plates, shunt plates, and box plates to provide many fixation options. The malleable plates can be easily contoured by hand without instruments. The pre-shaped skull-base plates provide covers for standard craniectomies, obviating the need to cut or trim mesh.
#### Performance Data
Materials used for the Stryker Universal Neuro 3 System are the same as the predicate devices. This includes all three product codes (GWO, GXR and HBW). The titanium materials used for manufacturing of the Stryker Universal Neuro 3 implants are rated to be biocompatible according to ISO 10993-1. Cytotoxicity testing was performed according to ISO 10993-1, 10993-12, and 10993-12, and 10993-18. The corrosion resistance of all Neuro 3 screws, plates and meshes were demonstrated.
The bending stability of the Universal Neuro 3 plates (product code GWO) and burr hole covers (product code GXR) were tested by following ASTM F 382-99. The Lerch test was passed by all plates.
8
{2}------------------------------------------------
For the screws (product code HBW), the testing was performed via ASTM F 543 -Standard Specification and Test Methods for Metallic Medical Bone Screws, 2007. Torque, depth and angle were measured. The screws passed the automated insertion test.
Additionally, we tested the fixation stability of our screws with pull out safety testing and the retention force between the screw and the screwdriver blade also utilizing ASTM F 543. All acceptance criteria were met.
#### Substantial Equivalence
The Stryker Universal Neuro 3 System has been verified and validated according to Stryker procedures for product design and development. The validation proves the safety and effectiveness of the system. The information provided by Stryker in this 510(k) application was found to be substantially equivalent with these predicate devices:
- Stryker Universal Neuro 2 System (Stryker, K031659) .
- Stryker Micro Dynamic Mesh (Stryker, K983528) .
- Synthes Neuro Plate and Screw System (Synthes, K022012) .
- Osteosynthesis (KLS-Martin, . KLS-Martin Micro System K944561/K944565)
The Stryker Universal Neuro 3 System, as stated above, consists of devices with three product codes: GWO (plates), GXR (burr hole covers), and HBW (screws). It has the same material composition and operating principles as its predicates mentioned above. The intended use is similar to the predicate systems with the only difference being the inclusion of adolescent usc. Further, there may be slight differences in dimensions and shapes between the Stryker Universal Neuro 3 System and the predicate devices; however, the information provided in this 510(k) proves substantial equivalence to the predicate devices.
Specifically speaking, our Universal Neuro 3 burt hole covers and screws are substantially equivalent to Stryker Universal Neuro 2 System ( K031659) and
9
{3}------------------------------------------------
Synthes Neuro Plate and Screw System (K022012). Our Universal Neuro 3 plates are substantially equivalent to the same two predicates named above (K031659 and K022012) plus Stryker Micro Dynamic Mesh (K983528). Also, we included the KLS-Martin Micro Osteosynthesis System (K944561/K944565) as a predicate because of its indicated pediatric use.
Below are three tables that outline our Universal Neuro 3 substantial equivalence.

Two short videos show you everything — or skip straight to the written tutorial if you'd rather read. You can reopen this any time from the Tutorial button in the top bar.
Part 1 — Search, results, and everyday workflows 16 min
Part 2 — Embeddings: the galaxy map 3 min
1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
Try it yourself
Head to the search page and work through a few of these AI/ML fuzzy searches to build intuition: perivascular fat on CT · aortic valve calcification opportunistic screening on noncontrast CT · breast cancer prediction on digital pathology slides · autism detection · gestational age prediction · a hearing aid that can also detect a pulse · foundation model based analysis of ECG · large language models · penetration test. Watch how the relevance scores, intended use, and AI Performance tables tell you when results stop being meaningful.
