This record contains the anonymized, aggregated dataset supporting the findings of the article "Frequency of Congenital Heart Diseases and Factors Associated with In-Hospital Mortality of Children in the Central Region of Angola, 2022–2023" (Canania KT, Sobral Filho DC, Canania ANE, Nhamba LA, Montorroyos UR). The study was a cross-sectional, hospital-based investigation conducted in the Pediatrics Department of Huambo General Hospital, Angola, between January 2022 and December 2023, based on 220 medical records of children aged 0–12 years diagnosed with congenital heart disease (CHD).
