I know of one medical device that is Arduino-powered.
Naming it would likely violate an NDA.
My job was mostly fixing a lot of code.
Arduino is not bad per se. It just limits you to the way things are done
there. It trades runtime speed and code size for convenience and speed of
development. If that is a good trade for you - go for it!
I personally prefer more tailored and efficient code in my firmware. YMMV
As is somewhat often pointed out on AVRfreaks,
if it is small and fast enough to get the job done,
it's already optimized enough,
though I've not seen that particular phrasing.
