By Brent Tucker, Founder and Owner — First Responder’s Coffee Company Brent Tucker When I retired from the service as a Green Beret and Delta Force Operator, friends called on me to help them train SWAT teams all over the country. Through them, I started to get involved in training law enforcement as well. It was through these training sessions that I experienced firsthand the impact that underfunded programs have on our society, especially when it comes to first responders.

For example, even though there is no water, when nurses are totally overwhelmed, they frequently say, “I’m drowning” because this metaphor comes the closest to how they feel in that moment. This phrase is not written down or taught anywhere in school. It is picked up and carried throughout the profession on the waves of culture.

A new study led by investigators at Cleveland Clinic calls into question the accuracy of serum creatinine when estimating kidney function of individuals who are nonweight-bearing. Findings from the study suggest creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) equations alone may be inaccurate, and cystatin C or combined eGFR equations may be a more accurate assessment of kidney function in this patient population.
