King of hearts is not a disease; it's a type of heart monitor that is often worn for a month. It's an event monitor. When the patient feels some chest/heart discomfort, they push a button to record the event. These recordings can then be downloaded over the phone to the center. The cardiologist can review the readings to see if there's a problem.
