Brief summary

Evaluation of a postoperative tracheal extubation protocol under positive pressure in accordance with international recommendations. Two arms: the first with "classic" extubation with disconnection of the respirator and the second with extubation without disconnection of the respiratory, as recommended. Computer Randomization with a 1: 1 ration

Interventions

Two arms: the first with "classic" extubation with disconnection of the ventilator and the second with an extubation without disconnection of the respiratory "positive pressure"
