Please see this list of FDA consensus standards (updated last month). Of note are the items below including AAMI TIR45 on AGILE practices in software development, and the updated Common Vulnerability Scoring System  (CVSS), noting that both 3.1 and 4.0 are recognised, but that the period for which 3.1 is recognised is 7 months then 4.0 is recognised. As usual, if recognition is partial refer to the FDA database Recognized Consensus Standards: Medical Devices for the explanation of the degree of recognition etc.
