Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Vacuum assisted closureRelaparotomy "on demand"

Vacuum assisted closure: The Vacuum assisted closure system consists of an abdominal dressing covering the intra abdominal viscera over the dressing there will be placed a blue sponge which will be covered by drape and connected to a vacuum pump.

Relaparotomy "on demand": Abdomen is closed at the index operation after source of peritonitis is treated. Every 48-hours the patients are evaluated for the need of relaparotomy based on clinical and paraclinical parameters.

Study summary

Multicenter randomized controlled trial including patients with fecal or diffuse peritonitis to either vacuum assisted closure or relaparotomy "on-demand".

Inclusion Criteria: Patients eligible for enrolment are 18+ years of age and are scheduled for acute laparotomy due to suspected peritonitis originating from perforation of the small bowel, colon, or rectum. To be included, purulent, enteric, or fecal contamination in a minimum of 2 out of 4 quadrants must be confirmed. Exclusion Criteria: * Diffuse peritonitis originating from a different focus than the small intestine, colon or rectum * Diffuse peritonitis originating from a perforation on the stomach, duodenum, gallbladder, appendix, necrotizing pancreatitis, salpingitis, or peritoneal dialysis * Primary peritonitis * Immunocompromised (ongoing chemotherapy or prednisolone \>20 mg/day) * Chronic parenchymal liver disease * Pregnancy * Patients with end-stage disease * Laparoscopic surgery (not converted to laparotomy) * Acute occlusion of superior mesenteric artery * Peritoneal carcinomatosis * Abdominal trauma * Lack of consent from the surgical equipoise * Local peritonitis confined to 1 quadrant only

Primary outcome measure(s)

  • Primary endpoint is to compare peritonitis related complications and Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI) between NPWT treatment (VAC) and conventional treatment (ROD) at 30, 90 days and 1 year. — 1 year
