PurposeTo present the results of a survey involving 97 centralised intravenous admixture service (CIVAS) centres in China to review the recent advances of Chinese CIVAS.Methods103 CIVAS centres in first- or second-class Chinese hospital settings were surveyed by email questionnaire.ResultsNinety-seven centres responded(response rate 94%). With regard to scale and output issues, large CIVAS centres with a daily output of more than 10 000 bags accounted for 10% while the per workbench and per square metre output varied dramatically among different centres. For personnel structure, 80% of CIVAS centres chose the combination model of pharmacy and nursing. For the CIVAS operation model, more than 80% of centres adopted the drug centralised compounding model.ConclusionCIVAS centres are playing an important role in Chinese hospital pharmacy and have developed into an emerging pharmaceutical industry. The development of Chinese CIVAS centres is very variable. With regard to the personnel structure, the pharmacy–nursing combination model is recommended, while the operation model should be selected according to specific hospitals. Universal guidelines for CIVAS operation and personnel training are urgently needed.

The rapid development of the transportation industry in Shandong Province provides a fundamental guarantee for the economic and social development, but also brings a lot of energy consumption and pollutant emissions, directly affecting the construction of ecological Shandong. By investigating low-carbon development of the transportation industry in Shandong Province, this article analyzes the status of low-carbon development and identifies the problems: transportation structure is irrational; low-carbon development lacks corporate body; regulation of transportation energy saving needs to be strengthened. Put forward countermeasures for low-carbon development of the transportation in Shandong Province: speed up the construction of the integrated transport system; optimize transport organization; improve regulation of transportation energy; give full play to the leading role of science and technology to a low-carbon economy; strengthen low-carbon economic subject consciousness of transportation enterprises; develop public low carbon transport consciousness.

This paper explores the development present situation and the restricting factors of the iron and steel industry, taking Shandong Province as an example. This paper expounds the implementation path of the new development of Shandong’s iron and steel industry from the following six aspects, such as to adjust industrial structure, optimize the industrial layout, improve products structure, develop low carbon technology, develop the green energy and technology, and improve the industry value chain and so on.

The electric power industry is the energy basic industry of the country, which serves the development of the national economy, but also consumes a lot of energy, and causes heavy pollution to the ecological environment. This paper made investigation on low-carbon development status of the power industry in Shandong Province, identify the problems, and pertinently bring forward countermeasures of low-carbon development of electric power industry in Shandong Province.
