Damage report
From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference.
A damage report is a type of report summarizing the damage sustained by a starship or space station to its technological systems, usually due to combat. The commanding officer typically asks for a verbal damage report immediately after damage is sustained, and also has a written one prepared by the first officer on a PADD.
When Captain Jonathan Archer was returned to Enterprise NX-01 by the Xindi-Aquatic, he was given a damage report on a PADD by Subcommander T'Pol in sickbay. (ENT: "Damage")
Commander William T. Riker prepared a written damage report for Captain Jean-Luc Picard's review in his ready room after the incident with the Tamarians. (TNG: "Darmok")
Picard asked Worf for an immediate damage report after Major "Rakal" ordered the IRW Khazara to fire upon the USS Enterprise-D. Worf reported there was minimal damage as the disruptor beam had little power. (TNG: "Face of the Enemy")
After the USS Saratoga was severely damaged by a Borg Cube at the Battle of Wolf 359, Benjamin Sisko ordered a damage report. The tactical officer reported damage to decks 1 through 4. (DS9: "Emissary")
In 2369, when Vash and Q were present on Deep Space 9, a hull breach occurred. Benjamin Sisko asked for a damage report. Kira Nerys reported of a hull breach in an upper bulkhead while Miles O'Brien reported of hull fractures throughout the station. (DS9: "Q-Less")
A "full damage report" includes information that is usually part of a status report, including antimatter supplies, and casualties. In 2372, Captain Kathryn Janeway asked for a full damage report, which Tuvok provided in such detail. (VOY: "Deadlock")
In 2374, after successfully destroying a Jem'Hadar attack ship, Commander Karen Farris gave Captain Tim Watters a written preliminary damage report. (DS9: "Valiant")
