Objectives. The Loeb minimum criteria (LMC), developed by a 2001 consensus conference, are minimum standards for initiation of antibiotics in long term care settings, intended to reduce inappropriate prescribing.
NTP-Normal Temperature and Pressure. NTP is commonly used as a standard condition for testing and documentation of fan capacities: 1  NTP-Normal Temperature and Pressure-is defined as air at 20oC (293.15 K, 68oF) and 1 atm (101.325 kN/m2, 101.325 kPa, 14.7 psia, 0 psig, 29.92 in Hg, 407 in H2O, 760 torr).ote that the earlier IUAPC definition of STP to 273.15 K and 1 atm (1.01325 105 Pa) is discontinued. 1 Pa = 10-6 N/mm2 = 10-5 bar = 0.1020 kp/m2 = 1.02x10-4 m H2O = 9.869x10-6 atm = 1.45x10-4 psi (lbf/in2). Standard volume of 1 mole of an ideal gas at STP is 22.4 liters.
Body temperature norms. Normal body temperature varies by person, age, activity, and time of day. The average normal body temperature is generally accepted as 98.6Â°F (37Â°C). Some studies have shown that the normal body temperature can have a wide range, from 97Â°F (36.1Â°C) to 99Â°F (37.2Â°C). A temperature over 100.4Â°F (38Â°C) most often means you have a fever caused by an infection or illness.
