Thanks very much for all the replies. All the information was highly useful. I am starting my new job in about 3 weeks. I think it is probably very important to work with advice from a consultancy company right from the get go just make sure your not screwing anything up especially if you are new to developing for medical devices.

Thank you all for the very helpful replies! Just one further hypothetical question for a small medium enterprise, employing 12 people that's making a smart watch which monitors cardiac rhythm's, what's a ball park figure for the amount of money it's going to take to get the watch released under the IEC 62304 standard ?

I am looking for some advice. I have managed to land a new greenfield job to write some medical software but it has to be written to the IEC 62304 standard. I have previously written medical applications, but never to this particular standard. Object pascal is my go to language because of it's versatility and ease of readability and rapid application development. In my gut I feel that object pascal is a 'safer language' to program in vs C++ for example when it comes to writing safety critical code. However I can't find any examples of programs or applications being written to this standard in object pascal for medical devices. I am worried if I started development in object pascal that because there will be an accreditation process, that the software I have written would failed due to the accreditors being unfamiliar with object pascal. Would I be be better off using C++ in rad developer studio in order to get through the accreditation process for example ? Please could someone who has knowledge of this standard give me a few pointers.

Hi, Due to the current global crisis I am looking for remote object pascal jobs using either Delphi or Free Pascal. I have all the equipment needed to work remotely. I have been using Delphi since 2001 and I also know a lot of other programming languages. I hold a current licence for Delphi Rio 10.3 professional edition. I am based in the UK and English is my first language. Thanks for any help in advance. Jack Taylor
