Summary

APAMI 2009 was held in Hiroshima, Japan, on November 22–24, 2009. This issue includes two selected papers recommended by the programming committee co-chairs. They are “Lessons Learned from Data Mining of WHO Mortality Database” and “Survey on Medical Records and EHR in Asia-Pacific Region – Languages, Purposes, IDs and Regulations”. The theme of APAMI 2009 was "What are the medical records for?" A Hiroshima episode; Medical Records at Dr. Ban’s Clinic, 9 km from the Epicenter of A-Bomb, is included, which lets us think of the fundamental purpose of medical records.
