An implantable medical device includes a polymer substrate and at least one nanofiber. The polymer substrate includes a surface portion extending into the polymer substrate from a surface of the substrate. The at least one nanofiber includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion is interpenetrated with the surface portion of the substrate, and mechanically fixed to the substrate.The second portion projects from the surface of the substrate. 种可植入医疗装置包含聚合物基底和至少根纳米纤维。聚合物基底包括从基底表面延伸到聚合物基底中的表面部分。所述至少根纳米纤维包括第部分和第二部分。第部分与基底的表面部分互渗，并机械固定到基底。第二部分从基底表面伸出。
