Having good armor seems to decrease the probability of being
confused by and Umber Hulk. I`ve had games with armor class
around 0 or -1, and the chance of confusion seemed to drop
to 25% or so. Umber Hulk can confuse at a distance, so if
you use a staff of light, they can get you from across a
room.

One thing I`ve tried with success a couple of times is to wear
a de-cursed ring of teleportation. It can be a pain at times if
you are trying to get somewhere in particular, but I`ve been
saved several times by being teleported before I got beat to 
death.
