We call that "life support"... A vegetative state, where the body functions are fine but the brain activity is gone.

Typically, that's a temporary state, while they evaluate the possibility of a person waking up (are they brain dead, or potentially just comatose?), and if the former, give families time to make decisions, come to terms, say goodbye.
