Primary care physicians interested in health education and accident prevention should be knowledgeable about smoke alarms (smoke detectors with built-in alarms). Either ionization or photoelectric smoke alarms can help save lives if they are properly installed and maintained. The number, site and maintenance of smoke alarms in the home and the steps a person should take in the event of a fire are discussed. Considering the rates of death, disability and disfigurement associated with residential fires, early warning devices such as smoke alarms make sense.
对健康教育和事故预防感兴趣的初级保健医生应该了解烟雾报警器（内置警报器的烟雾探测器）。如果安装和维护得当，电离式或光电烟雾报警器都有助于挽救生命。本文讨论了家庭中烟雾报警器的数量、安装位置和维护，以及发生火灾时人们应采取的措施。考虑到与住宅火灾相关的死亡、残疾和毁容发生率，烟雾报警器等早期预警装置是有意义的。
