Hazelbaker tool, AKA ATLFF (Assessment Tool Lingual Frenulum Function)

[Guest guest]

Alison Hazelbaker's ATLFF is available at this link, Table 1, which was the basis of Ballard's 2002 Pediatrics Article, Ankyloglossia: Assessment, Incidence, and Effect of Frenuloplasty on the breastfeeding dyad.

For PTTs, I have not found the appearance items of as signficant assessment value as the function items.

Dr. Jim , et al, is in the process of revising the ABM's 'Neonatal Ankyloglossia' Protocol # 11.
