Objective To discuss the application and effect evaluation of the SOP teaching method during applying surgical practice teaching in local medical college. Method Select 123 undergraduate students from Grade 2011 clinical medical major in Medical College of Shaoguan University as objects of study.The students are divided into test (odd) group and control (even) group by draw. The two groups are taught by the same teachers

while the SOP method is applied to the test group (n=62) and the traditional surgical clinical teaching method is applied to the control group (n=61). Further

we use a combined method of the formative assessment and final assessment to compare and analyze the teaching feedback. After their graduate internship

we compare the autonomous study capability

clinical evaluation thought

normativity of the operation and adaptation capability in their intern positions as well as the degree of satisfaction of the test of two groups by doing a survey among them. All these will be analyzed by SPSS 18.0 software

and t test was used to compare two groups'measurement information and count data with chi-square.Results The comprehensive evaluation scores of the test group are significantly higher than the control group

in which the margin is of statistical value [(78.496±8.651)vs.(70.013±9.683)

t=3.537

P=0.001].The percentage of excellence of the test group is significantly higher than the control group

in which the margin is of statistical value (59.68%vs.39.34%

2=5.082

P=0.024).The percentage of fail of the test group is lower than the group taught by the traditional method

in which the margin is of statistical value (3.22% vs.16.39%

2=4.652，P=0.031). As far as their clinical graduate internship adaptation capabilities are concerned

students from the test group have more satisfaction on the teaching feedback over 4 perspectives then the other group

in which the margin is of statistical value. [ autonomous study capability (90.32%vs.70.49%

2=7.699

P=0.006);clinical evaluation thought (87.10%vs.77.05%

2=5.085

P=0.024);normativity of the operation (93.55%vs.70.49%

2=8.767

P=0.003);adaptation capability in the intern positions (96.77%vs.81.20%

2=5.652

P=0.017)].Moreover

the survey shows that the majority of students is satisfied with the evaluation of the SOP teaching method.Conclusions the SOP teaching method in surgical practice teaching helps to enhance students’ clinical operation and adaptation capability and promote the teaching quality.
