Mechanical ventilation of lungs during the long history has gone through different phases, which have been associated with technological and scientific development of its time. This is the most complex process and in spite of many progress it does not solve all problems, maintained of respiratory homeostasis, especially in patients with difficult lungs damage. Therefore, there is an existing need for further development of mechanical ventilation of lungs. Over the past time, a number of innovative approaches or adjuncts to mechanical ventilation have been actively researched. Many of these have shown some promise in improving our ability to provide ventilatory support. Which of these innovations will outlast the future? Based on actual development at innovations of mechanical ventilation, it can be assumed that it will be: protective lung ventilation, special form of gas exchange, weaning from mechanical ventilation, noninvasive and home use ventilators, development in fallowing patient’s condition and pharmacotherapy development.

Keywords: lungs, mechanical ventilation
