What Is The Treatment For Gross Hematuria?

I just had kidney stones shocked. On my discharge papers there was a place that had my diagnosis, below that showed kidney stones and then it also listed gross hematuria. This is the first time I have even seen that term let alone have it as part of my diagnosis. What is gross hematuria ?
