Hello,
It seems that they have put her into an induced coma. It may take a long time, after stopping sedation drugs to see if she will recover from this situation. A new EEG may be needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
