It is based on data collected fromthese units by the Notional Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) through theClient Oriented Data Acquisition Process (CODAP). CODN' is arequired reporting process for all drug abuse treatment andrehabilitation units receiving Federal funds for the provision of drugabuse treatment and rehabilitation services. CODAP admission anddischarge forms are completed for each client admitted to anddischarged from these clinics, regardless of source of funding supportfor any particular client. Thus, CODN' data reflect all clients treatedI at CODN' reparting units, not just those clients specifically supportedby Federal funds. CODN' Client Flow Summary forms are completedeach month by every clinic that reparts through COOftP, regardle,. of1: whether the clinic has any current admissions or discharges or anyactive clients in treatment.The data presented are based on a data file that has been editedI'I for internal consistency. The following information should beconsidered when using the reported data.Each admission reported on a CODN' form does not necessarilyj; represent a different client. To reduce multiple counting of someindividuals, records that represent transfer admissions between COON'I': clinics within a program are not included in the tables that containdata on clients admitted during the year.Tables that contain data on clients discharged during the yearI: are based on matched admission and discharge reparts. Thus, dischargeI reports for which there were no matching admission reports ore! excluded from these tables. - .To avoid the loss of useable information, reports with someincomplete or invalid information were retained and are excluded onlyIfrom those tabulations involving the specific items with Invalid1 responses. Thus, the number of clients on which related tables are~based varies somewhat from table to table.!In some instances, drug problem type and/or severity wasincorrectly reported on the CODN' forms. All tables in this report{ present data according to primary drug of abuse; thus, records onwhich the client's primary drug problem could not be identified areI excluded.Percentages shown in the tables have been rounded to thenearest tenth of a percent, i.e., fractional percentages of 0.05 orgreater have been rounded to the next higher tenth of a percent. Thist, rounding process results in some percent distributions adding to 99 orIU I percent; however, all "totals" reflect 100 percent.'I I; \ Definitions of termsIii \Age at admission--Derived by subtracting a client's year of: ~birth from year of admission to treatment.;1Age at first use--The chronological age at which a person firsti I! i used the drug now listed as his/her primary drug problem.jDrug users {clients)--Persons admitted to a clinic for theprevention of treatment of a drug problem; they are assigned to atreatment plan and receive the clinical and supportive servicesJ! identified in the regimen.

When a clinic's Federal contract or grant,jstates that both prevention and treatment services are to be provided,the persons receiving prevention services are also considered clients.l IIIi ., The guidelines of the Federal funding agencies state that a client is'I ! considered active if he/she receives treatment services at least once!q i every 30 days. Only active clients are reported on CODAP. If the.J client has not received treatment or direct services for 30 days, he orilIshe must be discharged from the COON' reporting system. Partiali services are occasionally offered to community groups, clients' families,iIand individuals; this activity is not repo,'led by CODN' clinic!; because1I r the people involved in receiving partial services ore not treated forIIdiagnosed drug problems.i'Drug types--Drugs are classified into 12 categorie~: heroin;other opiates--illegal methadone, opium, morphine, codeine, Demerol,il II Dilaudld, etc.; marihuana/hashish--includes THC, "hash oil," otherIJcannabis preparations; barblturates--phenobarbltal, Seconal, Nembutal,"etc.; omphetamines--Benzedrine, Dexedrine, methamphetamine, "speed,"Iijand related compounds such as Preludin, Ritalin, etc.; alcohol; cocaine;~ ! halluclnogens--LSD, mescaline, psilocybin, MCA, DMT, ffilJshrooms,I'peyote, etc.; PCP--"angel dust"; tranquilizers--Jibrlum, Valium,fi I!\'This information was excerpted from the U.S. Department of !-balth and Human Services,National Institute on Drug Abuse, Annual Data 1981, Data from the Client Oriented DataAcquisition Process (CODAP), Statistical Series E, No. 25 (Washington, D.C.: U.S. GovernmentPrinting Office, 1982), pp. I, 2, 369-374.
