In patients with LBBB, who were in sinus rhythm at enrolment, BIV pacing exceeding 90% was associated with a benefit of CRT-D in HF/death when compared with ICD patients. Furthermore, BIV pacing ≥97% was associated with an even further reduction in HF/death, a significant 52% reduction in death alone, and increased reverse remodelling.

Introduction
We present a case of cystitis, which was considered to be an immune‐related adverse event associated with nivolumab administration.
Case presentation
A 47‐year‐old man suffered from sudden onset urinary symptoms after 18 cycles of nivolumab treatment for stage IV pulmonary adenocarcinoma. Urine culture and urine cytology were both negative. The symptoms were inferred to be related to nivolumab administration, and a bladder biopsy under spinal anesthesia was performed. The histopathological examination showed the evidence of allergic‐related cystitis. We planned to administer corticosteroids, but the urinary symptoms disappeared after the bladder biopsy. Nivolumab treatment was continued without recurrent bladder symptoms.
Conclusion
We reported a case of cystitis after treatment with nivolumab, which served as a reminder to consider the possibility of immune‐related adverse events as a potential cause for any symptoms that develop during treatment with immuno‐oncology drugs.
In this article, we review the potential for adverse impacts on the clinician following a medical error or poor clinical outcome. Second victim syndrome, its symptoms, risk factors, natural history, and possible outcomes are described. We also discuss the important role of organizational leadership and culture and highlight possible programmatic interventions designed to support clinicians following an adverse event.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
