Identifying likely organic pathology is important since it can be treated and may result in further, long\u2010term harm to the patient if not treated. Currently, organic pathology is often identified via invasive procedures such as endoscopy or referral to a medical imaging service. We report on an approach that offers a first step at identifying patients with an organic gastrointestinal disease based on the SAGIS, a validated symptom questionnaire.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>8,922 patients referred to a tertiary care hospital were classified as having either functional gastrointestinal disease or an organic gastrointestinal disease. A model was developed to distinguish organic from functional symptoms on one random split half of the sample and validated on the other half. The incremental benefit of including psychological conditions and extra\u2010gastrointestinal conditions was also evaluated.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Key results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Functional gastrointestinal patients scored higher on average than organic patients on all dimensions of the SAGIS and reported higher rates of psychological and extra\u2010gastrointestinal conditions. All five dimensions of the SAGIS provided statistically independent discrimination of organic from functional diagnoses with good overall discrimination (AUC\u00a0=\u00a00.75). However, there was no noticeable incremental benefit of adding either psychological or extra\u2010gastrointestinal conditions. Model performance was highly reproducible.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions and inferences<\/jats:title><jats:p>The proposed algorithm for identifying likely organic gastrointestinal disease applied to symptoms as recorded in the SAGIS questionnaire provides a useful tool for the clinician in deciding what or if further diagnostic testing is
