On-demand relaparotomy has been associated with a slightly decreased mortality compared to planned relaparotomy in the surgical treatment of secondary peritonitis. On-demand relaparotomy must be performed without delay to detect progressing sepsis early, before the onset of multiorgan failure. The aim of the study was to evaluate procalcitonin (PCT) as a parameter for early detection of progressing sepsis after operative treatment of the infective source.
