CEN TC/251 has adopted the openEHR archetype model Archetype Object Model 1.4 and ADL 1.4 as the means of expressing archetypes to be used in conjunction with EHR data sent as CEN EN13606 EHR Extracts; these specifications are snapshotted in the revised EN13606 part 2. Archetypes created directly based on the EN13606 part 1 model fall into the category of legacy archetypes as defined above.

The openEHR ADL 1.5 and AOM 1.5 specifications, currently in late draft, will supersede the 1.4 specifications used by CEN and ISO 13606.
