MISRA equivalent for the medical industry?

To a large extent, as the name implies, is there an equivalent document, standard or set in the medical industry, or for the MISRA automotive industry?

I work in the field of C, but any language agnostic will be good too.

In addition to the earlier answers, I would be interested to know why you feel that MISRA is not suitable?

Yes, I completely agree that MISRA-C: 1998 was named and aimed at vehicle-based Software, but the second edition in 2004 has already changed to "C Language Guide for Critical Systems , and as such MISRA is applicable to all industries - and (for example) is a reference document for Joint Strike Fighter coding standards.

MISRA-C has definitely been adopted by the nuclear and medical industries.

And (putting a member of my MISRA working group in one minute, although I only send in personal capacity), if there are any specific problems related to the MISRA-C application to medical devices, then I am happy to discuss here and / or raise with team.

You must use the MISRA-C: 2004 Manuals for Using C in Critical Systems. There is nothing in MISRA-C that does not apply to medical technology programs.

This does not apply specifically to the automotive industry, but simply invented by them.

Not that I knew. The medical device industry is much less organized around coding standards; each company has its own process.

Why don't you just take a subset of MISRA?
