Answer to Question 1

Diabetes mellitus and hypertension are disorders seen in the Hispanic ethnic group. Phenylketonuria is a disorder seen in the Irish ethnic group. Chronic liver disease is a disorder seen in the Native American ethnic group. Sickle-cell anemia is a disorder seen in the African American ethnic group. Peptic ulcer disease is a disorder seen in the Korean ethnic group.

Answer to Question 2

Clients with hypokalemia often have concurrent hypomagnesemia. Hypokalemia is resistant to treatment unless the hypomagnesemia is corrected. Sodium, calcium, and bicarbonate changes are not associated with hypokalemia.
