Anaesthesia and respiratory device distributors in Canada: 80 licensed establishments
The Bastion Hale Distributor Index lists 80 establishments in Canada whose registry records include anaesthesia and respiratory: 45 with a channel role (importer, distributor, wholesaler or authorised representative), 16 registration holders without a channel role, and 19 registered as manufacturer or exporter only, out of 2,745 medical device establishments in Canada overall. The records come from Health Canada and US FDA (openFDA), last seen on 22 October 2026.
Anaesthesia and respiratory covers ventilators, anaesthesia machines, airway consumables, oxygen therapy and sleep devices. Capital equipment and consumables often travel through the same distributor, which makes service capability a buying factor. Home respiratory care adds a non-hospital channel in several markets.

Who holds the registration in Canada
In Canada the device licence (MDALL) is held by the manufacturer, while importers and distributors need a Medical Device Establishment Licence (MDEL). The manufacturer keeps the product registration; the distributor's MDEL is its own and transfers nothing to it.
