Abstract：It is often necessary to write periodic reports in hospital statistical work, but the separation of data analysis and completed reports will lead to low efficiency and errors. This article introduces the basic syntax of markdown and the Rlanguage rmarkdown and knitr software packages, taking the common content of hospital statistics as an example, in order to demonstrate the function of generating analysis reports based on R markdown documents. Using R markdown documents to write periodic reports can effectively improve the work efficiency of hospital statisticians, reduce the error rate of reports and easily trace the source of errors.
