Objective　With the development of digital technology

network technology and mobile technology

new media aided-teaching has become a hot topic in medical teaching. However

the studies about the application of new media aided-teaching in training for professional postgraduates of neurosurgery are still less studied. Methods In this study

24 Batch 2015-2016 professional postgraduates of neurosurgery from Neurosurgery Department of Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University were divided into the test group and control group

with 12 students in each group. From September 2016 to August 2018

students in the test group were taught with conventional teaching and various new media such as WeChat official accounts

professional video sharing websites and so on. The control group adopted conventional teaching methods. Students' theoretical knowledge

operation ability and clinical research ability were assessed between the two groups. SPSS 22.0 software was used for t test and descriptive statistics on the data. Results　The results of t test analysis showed that the scores of theoretical knowledge and general ability in test group were higher than those in control group

with significant differences (P < 0.05). Meanwhile

the scores of teaching satisfaction

professional interest

teaching participation

knowledge mastery and scientific research ability in the test group were higher than those in the control group

with significant differences (P<0.05). Conclusion　Conventional teaching combined with new media aided-teaching is a good new training model for professional postgraduates of neurosurgery

which has improved students' participation and motivation of study and contributed to the training of medical students' comprehensive abilities.
