N2  - Background: The present study was intended to be a pacemaker registry for the Critical Care Medicine Department at Cairo University. It is a  continuation for a series of similar studies that were conducted in our  department . Results: During this period 1307 interventions have been reported: 961  first implants (73.5%) and 346 replacements (26.4%). The total number  of patients is lower than interventions because some of them were  included as first implants and as replacements after years. In first implant  the average age, clinical signs, ECG disorders and pacing modes were  described. Data collected in device replacement interventions were  pacing modes and cause for replacement. From 2007 to 2013 we have  seen a decline in VVI(R) pacing mode in favor to DDD(R) mode. AAI(R)  disappeared and VDD(R) modes have remained invariable. Also there  was marked increase in biventricular pacing in the last seven years. Finally, we show data on any detected complications or malfunction
