Early detection of twiddler syndrome due a congestion alert by remote monitoring

There are often false‐positive alerts of thoracic impedance monitoring; however, the “false‐positive alerts” might indicate any clinical problem of patient. In the present case, an alert for a drop in intrathoracic impedance, which generally indicates exacerbation of heart failure, enabled early det...
