AB The aim of mechanical ventilation is to substitute physiological respiratory function. The boom of mechanical ventilation came during theXVIII century with the development of Reanimation Societies in Europe,who promoted the use of positive pressure ventilation modes. This type ofventilation caused new complications due to excessive positive pressure inthe airway. Therefore, during the XIX century negative pressure ventilationpredominated, which became essential during the second half of the 19thcentury and first half of the 20th century. Positive pressure ventilation wasrelegated to operating rooms until 1952, when it was imposed over negativepressure ventilation during the Copenhagen polio epidemic. Björn Ibsencontributed significantly to this change of ventilation paradigm, whichled to the latest ventilation strategies and the development of the actualintensive care units.
