Majority of these patients were on anti coagulants, have open AV fistula and decreased platelet count due to iatrogenic damage to platelets during dialysys, so the major considerations in ESRD patients should be towards control of infections, bleeding and other complications of anemia and adjusting the dosages of the drugs. All the dental procedures should be carried on the next day of dialysis.
