1. A method of forming a bioactive composite coating on a device comprising the steps of:

  • providing an electrolytic solution comprising metal ions;

    contacting the device with the electrolytic solution;

    applying an electric charge across the device to form a first layer on the device;

    providing an electrochemical solution comprising metal ions and a biologically active agent; and

    contacting the device having said first layer with the electrochemical solution to form a second bioactive metal composite layer on the device.
