The effect of pentobarbital on nitrogen and energy metabolism was evaluated in seven severely head-injured patients (Glasgow Coma Scale 4.7+/-1.7) within the first week postinjury. Measured energy expenditure (% of predicted) was significantly lower in the pentobarbital group (n= 4) versus control (n= 3)(76+/-23% versus 132+/-28%, respectively, p< 0.01). Similarly, 24-hour urinary nitrogen excretion was lower for the barbiturate group compared to control (11.2+/-4.0 gm versus 19.5+/-3.3 gm, respectively, p< 0.01). No statistical difference was noted for urinary 3-methylhistidine excretion between the barbiturate and control groups (43+/-12 meg/day versus 47+/-14 meg/day, respectively, p= NS).
