The MELD score ranges from 6 to 40, and is a measure of how severe a patient's liver disease is. MELD can fluctuate based on your current condition, with variations from a few points as lab values vary to a larger increase if you have an infection or an acute decompensation (worsening of your liver disease)
Here is the normal range of the MELD score.
