All the tests show that the weaning tests that best reproduce respiratory muscle work after extubation were pressure support ventilation (PSV) 0 cmH₂O + positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) 0 cmH₂O and the T piece, with no statistically significant difference between the two. *p < 0.001 when compared with after extubation.
