Hello!
Welcome on Healthcaremagic!
Unfortunately, there is not a specific therapy for such disorder. As far, as I understand her situation is critical. Supportive therapy (antibiotics, blood thinners, perfusions, anti-seizure drugs etc.) are the main treatment now.
Only after getting over this situation, the degree of brain damage will be determined.
In such case, the mainstay of her future therapy would be physical and mental rehabilitation, and anti-epilepsy treatment in case of seizures.
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Kind regards, Dr. Aida
