EASCO ALUMINUM COMPANY and Travelers Insurance Company, Appellants, v. Carlos TELON, Appellee.
    No. 91-1184.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.
    March 31, 1992.
    Rehearing Denied May 6, 1992.
    Richard E. Chait, of Nelson & Tacher, Miami, for appellants.
    Charles E. Bloom, of Bloom, Feola & Bloom, Miami, for appellee.
   WIGGINTON, Judge.

Appellants, employer/carrier, appeal a judge of compensation claims’ order finding that appellee suffers a compensable cardiac condition and awarding workers’ compensation benefits accordingly. We reverse.

The instant record is totally devoid of competent substantial evidence that, within reasonable medical probability, appellee has suffered a compensable coronary episode. The record establishes only that ap-pellee suffered a noncompensable gall bladder attack on the claimed date of accident. Consequently, the appealed order is REVERSED.

SMITH and MINER, JJ., concur.
