Gitelman Syndrome
In these children, a tendency towards hypokalemia was first noted during the third week of life.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
This paper presents 3 sisters with Gitelman syndrome who could not tolerate magnesium supplements, and whose hypotension and polyuria were eliminated by taking 2 mg/kg/day[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Clinical history was positive for symptoms of orthostatic hypotension and polyuria. There was no history of drugs consumption other than potassium supplements.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Bartter Syndrome
Hypokalemia was corrected only on addition of spironolactone on day 11.[sjkdt.org]
Lab Metabolic alkalosis, decreased serum K , increased urine K , increased renin, increased aldosterone.[medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]
Bartter syndrome is characterized by hyperplasia of the juxtaglomerular cells along with: hypokalemia metabolic alkalosis hypotension/normotension elevated plasma renin elevate[radiopaedia.org]
Metabolic Alkalosis
Hypokalemia seen with heat stress is secondary to sweat as well as renal potassium wasting.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Three patients with hypokalemia, normal blood pressure, metabolic alkalosis, hyperreninemia and hyperaldosteronism are described.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
We describe a case of medication induced metabolic alkalosis in a maintenance dialysis patient who developed severe hypotension while undergoing a lactate hemofiltration procedure[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Renal Salt-Wasting Syndrome
In 3 patients, fludrocortisone treatment was complicated by hypokalemia, and in 1 patient by hypertension, which necessitated a dose reduction or brief cessation of therapy[pediatrics.aappublications.org]
The proximal site of salt transport defect has been suggested by the absence of hyperreninemia and hypokalemia, which would be a distinguishing feature of Bartter’s syndrome[karger.com]
Seven of seventy patients treated with cisplatin over 18 months developed salt-wasting nephropathy and orthostatic hypotension.[annals.org]
Bartter's Disease
Laboratory testing is significant for hypokalemia, hypochloremia, and metabolic alkalosis.[medbullets.com]
Lab Metabolic alkalosis, decreased serum K , increased urine K , increased renin, increased aldosterone.[medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com]
Bartter syndrome is characterized by hyperplasia of the juxtaglomerular cells along with: hypokalemia metabolic alkalosis hypotension or normotension elevated plasma renin[radiopaedia.org]
Hyponatremia
Carbamazepine was discontinued, fluid restriction ordered, and hypokalemia was corrected.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
In this setting, release of both antidiuretic hormone (ADH) (increases renal permeability to water) and renin (increases renal sodium retention) occurs.[doi.org]
After several weeks of suffering from gastroenteritis with vomiting, she presented with disturbance of consciousness, hypotension, dehydration, and severe hyponatremia (108[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Hypoaldosteronism
A 51-year-old Japanese woman with hypokalemia due to distal renal tubular acidosis associated with Sjögren's syndrome exhibited a decreased plasma aldosterone level despite[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
These results suggest adrenal insensitivity to angiotensin II, possibly a defect in adrenal angiotensin II receptors, as the cause of hypoldosteronism with hyperreninemia[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
It can also cause urinary sodium wasting, leading to volume depletion and hypotension.[en.wikipedia.org]

Intravenous fluid boluses of normal saline (10.5 L in about 24 h) and vasopressors were started with rapid correction of hypotension.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

She was referred to nephrology due to hypertension, hypokalemia, and mild proteinuria.[journals.plos.org]
