I just did a bulk download of 133 Observation archetypes from ckm.openehr.org 
and extracted the following list of units:-

/d, /h, /min, /mo, /wk, 1/min, 10*12/l, 10*6/l, 10*6/mm3, 10*9/l, Ashman units, 
Hz, Hz/s, IU, U, U/l, 
[pH], cc, cm, cm2, cm[H20], d, dB, daPa, daPa/s, deg, fl, fl oz, ft, gm, gm/d, 
gm/l, gm/wk, h, in, 
in2, kHz, kPa, kg, kg/m2, l, l/min, l/s, lb, lb/in2, m, m2, mIU/l, mV, mg, 
mg/dl, mg/l, millisec, min, 
ml, ml/d, ml/ml, ml/s, ml/wk, mm, mm/h, mm2, mm[H20], mm[H20]/s, mm[Hg], mmho, 
mmol/l, oz(avdp), pg, 
pmol/l, s, {Volume/Volume}, °, °C, °F, µmol/ 

I did this with a script and have not manually validated this list visually in 
the ADL.

regards,
