Formal Evaluation

Some lessons can be learned from an analysis of the experience of New York State's civil commitment program, which was operating from 1966 through 1979, and was the largest and most expensive in the country. Judges need to be carefully selected and trained and assigned to relevant cases: staff must be selected in terms of specific criteria and trained and supervised, clients have to be assigned to particular facilities in accordance with their needs; referral procedures ought to be established in advance of operations; the civil commitment must differ from a court sending someone to a facility; networks with other programs have to be articulated; formal and reliable procedures for absconding clients are necessary; length of stay has to be critically examined; and formal evaluation is a necessity. The New York State program suffered because of problems in all of these areas.

Abstract Highly purified human lactate dehydrogenase 1 has been used in an interlaboratory evaluation and improvement progran in clinical chemistry in New York State since 1971. Although there are difficulties in determining and assigning the most nearly accurate values for test samples in the absence of a reference method and a reference material, we have minimized these difficulties by using human lactate dehydrogenase preparations purified as we describe here and suspended in the same matrix, and by utilizing "reference laboratories" that routinely are doing multiple assays to determine the most nearly accurate value. The lactate dehydrogenase used in the program is stable for longer than 1.5 years. Conversion factors were used to convert all results to U/liter at 30 degrees C. Review of the data for 1972-75 shows a marked improvement in the accuracy of virtually all methods used to determine this enzyme.
