indigestion
Let an agent explain indigestion and its causes, relay assessment, warning signs and general management from gastroenterology guidelines, describe functional dyspepsia and historical terms, and distinguish indigestion from heartburn, gastritis, ulcer and cardiac chest pain, routing warning signs and possible heart symptoms first.
Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description
Let an agent explain indigestion and its causes, relay assessment, warning signs and general management from gastroenterology guidelines, describe functional dyspepsia and historical terms, and distinguish indigestion from heartburn, gastritis, ulcer and cardiac chest pain, routing warning signs and possible heart symptoms first.
Discomfort or pain in the upper abdomen, also called dyspepsia, often with bloating, early fullness, nausea or belching, the last formerly termed ructus, arising from causes such as peptic ulcer, gastro-oesophageal reflux, medicines and Helicobacter pylori infection, or as functional dyspepsia without an identifiable structural cause; older terms such as fermentative and atonic dyspepsia are historical classifications. Warning signs such as vomiting blood, black stools, weight loss or difficulty swallowing need prompt medical care. The model routes people to clinicians.
What it is for: Not applicable; a symptom complex.
It can be route warning signs first; explain causes and kinds; relay assessment and management; distinguish related conditions.
Distinguishing features
Upper abdominal
Common
Functional or organic
Warning signs matter
What it looks like
Not a visible object; an upper abdominal discomfort.
Physical character
prevalence of dyspepsia: about 20 percent - global estimates
Rome IV criteria: define functional dyspepsia note - 2016
common cause: Helicobacter pylori and NSAIDs among others note
How it is recognised
Upper abdominal discomfort after eating
Functional dyspepsia, fermentative and atonic dyspepsia as historical terms, ructus or belching
Heartburn is burning behind the breastbone; gastritis is inflammation; ulcers are lesions; cardiac pain can mimic indigestion
