Item_Tree contain the core elements to be used by Action and Instruction archetypes. For example the data requirements for ordering medication (Instruction) are identical to those required for recording the administration of the medication (Action) such as name, dose, duration, frequency etc, so Action & Instruction archetypes should be composed of an embedded Item_Tree archetype.
