What should the nurse do if she notices a residual gastric content of 50mL?

It depends on the patient. For an adult patient anything less than 200 ml is ok. However, for a patient such as a child, their feeding is much less. You should never have more residual than what the last feeding was. Consequently, in an adult, that would be OK, and you can continue with the next feeding.

How do you treated a patient that has been giving too much insulin?

When to much insulin is administered, the treatment depends on how large the dose of insulin is and how low the patient's blood sugar is. For patients with minorly low to moderately low blood sugar, the easiest treatment is to administer oral glucose (glucose gell, glucose tablets, etc...) for severe cases, glucagon is administered. Glucagon is a chemical that makes the patient's liver release large amounts of glucose. In the most severe cases (eg. attempted suicide) intravenous glucose is given.
