Objective To evaluate the effect and feasibility of simulation teaching on the acquisition and retention of basic surgical clinic skills for eight-year medical program.Methods 46 clinical medical students of eight-year medical program in 2012 grade in Peking University Third Hospital were randomized to a simulation training (experimental group) or a traditional teaching (control group) for surgical skill training curriculum during a period of 3 weeks. Students were tested with objective structured assessment of technical skills (OSATS) scoring system after training and 1 year later.Results 46 students completed all models training and post-training assessments. OSATS scores were higher in experimental group compared with control group (t=9.194, P=0.001). After 1 year, this effect persisted with OSATS scores still being significantly higher in experimental group (t=14.140, P=0.001). The simulation teaching method was approved by most of students through the questionnaire survey.Conclusions Simulation teaching improves technical efficiency. Retesting can further evaluate advantages of simulation teaching.
