Abstract Background: The adrenal response in critically ill patients, including trauma victims, has been debated over the last decade. The aim of this study was to assess the early adrenal

response after trauma.

Methods: Prospective, observational study of 50 trauma patients admitted to a level-1-trauma

cr

centre. Serum and saliva cortisol were followed from the accident site up to five days after

us

trauma. Corticosteroid binding globulin (CBG), dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and sulphated dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEAS) were obtained twice during the first five days

after trauma. The effect of time and associations between cortisol levels and; severity of trauma, infusion of sedative/analgesic drugs, cardiovascular dysfunction and other

adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) dependent hormones (DHEA/DHEAS) were studied. Results: There was a significant decrease over time in serum cortisol both during the initial

24 hours, and from the 2nd to the 5th morning after trauma. A significant decrease over time

was also observed in calculated free cortisol, DHEA, and DHEAS. No significant association
