Anyone have a definitive list of countries that employ CRNAs?

I've found lots of references to "107" countries that employ CRNAs, but I've yet to be able to track down a list of what those countries are. Sadly, New Zealand and Australia are not on the list!

Tks!

I think it is important to note that practice as a CRNA is the US is rarely parallel to practice in other countries. As a matter a fact, I'm unaware if any country that allows them with as much autonomy as we enjoy here.

Having attended quite a few anesthesia meetings in quite a few countries. I have found no other country that uses CRNAs in the manner they are used here...With the possible exception of the french military...

That being said.. quite a few countries are looking at the US CRNA model...
