Abstract It can be shown that the sequence of spontaneous movements in the active sleep of healthy neonates can be described as a Poisson process. This statistical model is the basis of the modelling of movement-related heart-rate reactions (MRHR) as a secondary process. Modelling these processes gives essential information about possible diagnostic parameters such as the mean frequency of classified movements in active sleep (AS), and characteristics of the course of MRHR. Optimisation of the reliability of interpreting power spectral parameters, analysis of longterm rhythms and designation of the physiological trends of neonatal heart rates can be attained if the results of time series analysis are compared with fitted simulations. Modifications and new techniques of data acquisition and processing are created by means of the computer model.
