ISLAMORADA, Fla. (AP) — A 57-year-old Alaskan pediatrician died while scuba diving off the Florida Keys, officials said Saturday.
Dr. Kimberly Jean Kilgore of Juneau died Friday while diving with a group off Islamorada, the Monroe County Sheriff's Office said.
Deputies said Kilgore was in about 45 feet (13 meters) of water when she began having trouble and lost conscious on the surface. The diving boat's crew began CPR and paramedics were summoned, but she was pronounced dead at the hospital.
No foul play is suspected. An autopsy report is pending.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say 'medical event'.

Bad gas can look like a medical event too. Delirium, chest pains, loss of consciousness - it's a long list.

Well if it's bad gas, we'll eventually hear about since it's in the keys (most likely). That wouldn't be what I'd jump to first though.
