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.

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.
