(I'm going to assume you're asking what the diagnosis would be)

I will also go out on a limb and say that there is a pulse, in which case checking for any movement when testing pressure points may be a good step. Making sure to watch her eyes throughout the process, if she doesn't show any signs of recognition, she may be brain dead.

(Hope the helps! :] )
