Primary

MeasureTime frame
It is expected to find a success rate of disconnection from mechanical ventilation at least 30% higher than the control group

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Evaluate the safety of the technique through hemodynamic monitoring;Evaluate the incidence of barotrauma during the application of the lung expansion therapy protocol;Compare the length of stay in the intensive care unit in relation to the control group
