Answer 1

The situation that might call for the use of an electrocardiograph is "to check the cardiac health of a pre-surgical patient." An electrocardiograph (ECG) is used to assess the electrical activity of the heart, which is particularly important before surgery to ensure that the patient's heart is functioning properly and to identify any potential cardiac issues.
