meta puerta a balón/globo y meta puerta a aguja


Explanation:
Es evidente que se trata del tratamiento de una isquemia/infarto agudo del miocardio con diagnóstico clínico, ante el cual se proponen realizar una angioplastia percutánea y un tratamiento trombolítico urgentes en ambos casos. Por eso se resume el primer acto como "meta puerta (de entrada a urgencias) balón/globo" (para el cateterismo) y el segundo como "meta puerta a aguja (para inyectar trombolíticos).
