ADL Workbench
The Ocean ADL Workbench is a cross-platform GUI application that allows comprehensive review of archetypes, as part of the openEHR
initiative and the CEN EHR standardisations. You will need to get some archetypes to work with the tool from the Clinical Knowledge Manager.
The Workbench is Unicode-enabled, so it can work with archetypes in any language.
