The vigilance is, now, recognised as an active phenomenon submitted to definite structures, separate from those supervising sleep. A good cerebral function is required for vigilance maintenance and it is easily understood that cerebral alterations in aging result in vigilance decrease. The eminent repercussion of these disorders on the behavioral adaptation of the aged justified an awaking therapy. This original characteristic of vincamine, and specially of Pervincamine Forte Retard, is a fundamental discovery in cognitive functions maintenance of the aged people.
如今，警觉被认为是一种受特定结构支配的活跃现象，与那些监督睡眠的结构不同。维持警觉需要良好的脑功能，很容易理解衰老过程中的脑功能改变会导致警觉性下降。这些障碍对老年人行为适应的显著影响证明了唤醒疗法的合理性。长春胺，特别是缓释长春西汀的这一独特特性，是在维持老年人认知功能方面的一项重要发现。
