Objective To analyze the effect of using standardized patient (SP) tutorial in the spe-cialized training of pancreatic surgery with WeChat platform. Methods 48 surgeons participating in resi-dent standardized training in Changhai Hospital (all for postgraduate education) were enrolled as teaching object. 48 surgeons were divided into two groups: SP group (n=24) receiving WeChat combined with SP tutorial which updates learning plan, learning contents, and clinical discussion by Wechat platform and performs practical teaching by SP method, control group (n=24) receiving traditional tutorial by using tradi-tional clinical teaching methods and video teaching followed by practical teaching. The theoretical exami-nation, questionnaires and expert assessment were used to evaluate the effect of the two teaching methods. Statistical analysis was performed using the SPSS 19.0. Continuous data were expressed as median±stan-dard deviation and compared using the Student's t-test. Categorical data were compared using the Pearson's chi-square test. Results The score of theoretical examination of the two groups showed no significant difference [(85.5±7.6) vs. (81.4±14.9), P=0.238]. The results of questionnaires and expert assessment in WeChat&SP group were significantly better than those in the control group (P<0.001) other than theoretical and analytical ability (P>0.05). Conclusion WeChat platform combined with standardized patient tutorial in the specialized training of pancreatic surgery is feasible and more effective than traditional tutorial to improve teaching effectiveness.
